Fire Victims Of 300 Washington St Hoboken Bake Sale

A Bake Sale for the Fire Victims of 300 Washington St - help raise money!

Dear friends and residents,

 

on February 19th, 2012 a fire erupted at 300 Washington Street in Hoboken that grew so large, so quickly, that all occupants had to be evacuated from the building. Some escaped by climbing up to the roofs and being rescued by firefighters, others were able to leave early enough to use the stairs, and others, were out of town not knowing their entire lives were burning away. Thankfully they all survived, it was quite a site, and a reminder at the sacrifice our fire fighters make.

Residents of Hoboken and neighboring cities have showed a wonderful presence and desire to help the victims; several fundraisers are being organized, and there are many people working to collect items for them. 

We would like to help! As soon as news hit, the next morning my office was brainstorming and making calls to see how we could participate..

On March 7th, RE/MAX Gold Coast Realty will host a Bake Sale to raise additional funds to help the victims. 100% of all proceeds will be donated to them.

I hope that you will stop by my office to pick up a few sweets and leave a donation in return! In addition, my office will be collecting supplies for them. Currently they are still seeking clothing, electronic items, outerwear, gift cards and more.

If you are a baker and would like to donate some items for us to offer please let me know.

  

Thank you for considering to help us raise money for the victims of the 300 Washington St fire by donating or visiting our Hoboken bake sale!

Hoboken Pulls Together To Help Victims Of Fire At 300 Washington St

If you live in Hoboken then no doubt by now you are aware of the tragic fire that engulfed the building at 300 Washington Street displacing it's residents and taking almost everything they own leaving the building uninhabitable.

You also probably have come across the overwhelming support that residents of the city are pulling together to create for these victims.

Hoboken, sadly, is no stranger to fires. With one this past December at 1st and Jackson streets, a large fire at 12th and Washington Streets, and countless others over the years, unfortunately part of the beauty of our community of historic homes and the walkable streets of the city, probably also contribute to these fires.

Many buildings are of wood construction or framing, and many buildings are attached to each other...

Even knowing this, residents love living here and don't want to live anywhere else... and they also want to help.

Just moments after the blaze, groups and residents started teaming together to create a support web for the victims.

One of them is owner of Midtown Authentic who has arranged for a benefit to take place at Room 84 on Washington and Newark Street, this March 2nd. A donation will be collected at the door to be given to the victims.

In addition, several businesses in town have opened their doors to collect donations and other items.

Party With Purpose, a charity group that arranges events for charity, has announced that the remainder of their ticket sales for their party this Thursday February 23rd will be donated to the victims.

This Thursday, 7-8:30p.m. a meeting will be held at The Village Poorhouse on First Street in Hoboken for anyone interested in learning how they can help.

Hoboken411 wrote today that there are some people that seek opportunities to scam and fraud people in times like this, I truly hope that is not the case, and having been involved in many charity events from different groups including my own office fundraising can say confidently, and thankfully that I have never run into this.

Hoping the city will always continue to be so giving and kind.
