Their story

On New Year's Eve, December 31, 2024, NYPD officers Kevin Nolan and Nicole Patwell, along with their 15-month-old daughter Lilly and their two dogs, faced an unexpected and devastating crisis. As the clock struck 11:15 PM, a lightning strike caused a transformer to surge, igniting an electrical fire and triggering severe flooding in their home. Miraculously, the family emerged safe, but their home was rendered unlivable, forcing them to seek shelter elsewhere. Tragically, Lilly lost most of her Christmas gifts due to heavy smoke damage. As dedicated first responders who put their lives on the line for our city, they now find themselves in dire need of our support. We invite you to join us in assisting this courageous family as they strive to rebuild their lives. Your generosity can help them get back on their feet. Thank you for your compassion and support during this challenging time.
