🚨 Community Assistance Needed 🚨

The John Martins Foundation is currently working to help a family who has been displaced by a house fire in Bristol, Rhode Island.

We are urgently seeking long-term housing for the family, ideally a 3-bedroom apartment or home in Bristol or the surrounding communities. Their budget is approximately $2,000 per month, with a move-in date of August 1st or sooner.

If you know of any available rentals, property owners, or resources that may be able to assist, please send us a message or comment below.

Please share this post to help us reach as many people as possible. Together, we can help this family get back on their feet.

Thank you for your support. ❤️
