A fire broke out at a home in the Lakeshore subdivision in Tega Cay overnight. The entire family is safe, but the home is being called a loss. The American Red Cross has come to the aid of the Greek family (two adults, three children) but may I make a recommendation? In these lean times, rebuilding can be difficult. If you have anything that you can give to the family (especially clothing since the fire originated upstairs and most likely destroyed all of the clothes stored in the bedrooms), then try contacting the York County chapter of the American Red Cross about donating clothes to them. Their sons are 11, 9 and 7, respectively. The York County chapter can be contacted at 803-329-6575 or 803-684-2957. Their email is info [at] yorkcountyredcross [dot] org.

And while you’re at it? Consider donating some blood ARC while you’re at it!
