BALTIMORE, Oct. 24, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Royal Farms is pleased to announce a donation to the Hampden Community Council, supporting the victims and families affected by the devastating five-alarm fire that swept through multiple homes in the Hampden neighborhood on October 15, 2024. The donation is aimed at providing relief to those displaced or injured in the fire, which resulted in significant damage to homes and affected the lives of many local families.
“At Royal Farms, we are deeply committed to supporting the communities we serve and being a good neighbor,” said Aliyah Atayee, Public Relations at Royal Farms. “The Hampden fire has had a profound impact on local families, and we hope this donation will provide some relief during this incredibly difficult time. We stand with Hampden as they work to recover and rebuild.”
The donation will be used to directly assist the families and individuals who were injured or displaced by the fire. The Hampden Community Council, a local organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for residents, will work with affected families to ensure that the funds are distributed where they are most needed.
“Many individuals donate not for recognition or to meet a ‘goal’ but because it’s the right thing to do when your neighbor loses the roof over their head,” said Blaise Ahearn, Executive Board Member at Hampden Community Council. “Thus far we have seen donations from residents & businesses far and wide. The recent donation from Royal Farms will have a significant impact on the relief we will be able to provide these families. It is inspiring to see this level of support. Our only hope is that the long road to recovery for these families is shortened due to the generosity of their community.”
At Royal Farms, we believe in the strength of community, and our hearts are with all those impacted by this tragedy. In recognition of the incredible work by our first responders, Royal Farms will continue to offer free coffee to all first responders each time they visit any of our locations. We stand by our heroes and the Hampden community as they heal and rebuild, and we are honored to be part of the effort to bring comfort to those in need.
