On Monday, a fire broke out at 407 Monterey Blvd, resulting in the death of one of the residents. The other residents in the multi-unit building have been displaced, and need assistance. Read the Chronicle’s report on Firehouse.com (no paywall). A local resident recorded a video (click on image below).
Next-door neighbor Katie Carlin has generously taken up the task of helping the displaced tenants of the building. You can help. Read below for how:
From Katie:
Friends and neighbors, that horrible fire Monday took the life of one of our neighbors and displaced at least two other families. Thank you to the incredible SFFD for stopping the fire before it spread beyond the unit destroyed — this was no small feat with the winds that were whipping through here yesterday. There are young children and parents impacted by this, displaced from their homes. No one is allowed in the building because of the damage, and smoke has wrecked a lot of personal property. Residents have been offered 2 nights in a hotel in Daly City, care of the Red Cross, but no word on if or when they will be allowed back in the building. They need clothing, and also money.
