Community Comes Together and Raises $27,000 to Support Residents and First Responders Affected by the Hotel Hampton Fire in Easton
In less than one week, community members came together to raise more than $27,000 to support residents and first responders affected by last Friday’s fire at the Hotel Hampton in Easton.
One hundred percent of the funds raised will be directed toward assisting displaced residents and the fire companies that responded to the emergency. United Way of the Greater Lehigh Valley will begin distributing these funds today to ensure timely support reaches those in need.
We extend our sincere appreciation to BSI Corporate Benefits and its owners, Easton residents Tony and Adrienne DaRe, for their generous contributions in support of two of the fire companies involved in the response efforts.
