Fire disaster in Murau: Family stands with nothing after fire!

St. Georgen am Kreischberg, Österreich - in St. Georgen am Kreischberg, the tranquil idyll was shaken by a devastating apartment fire on New Year's Eve on December 31, 2024. The flames not only destroyed the house, but also the carport with three vehicles. A total of seven voluntary fire departments with 103 emergency services, whose rapid action ensured that the fire did not attack adjacent stable buildings. Nevertheless, a family of six is now facing nothing, such as 5min.at reported .

The willingness to help was not long in coming. On one day, over 130,000 euros came together in donations through a fundraising campaign initiated by friends, which is intended to help the affected family to redesign their lives. "Many thanks to everyone for the generous support," the initiator of the fundraising campaign is quoted, while the payment of the money from Gofundme has already been initiated. The situation is reminiscent of another dramatic incident: On November 23, 2024, a family of five was also surprised by a devastating fire during the night. Her home became uninhabitable, and although everyone got off lightly, the family lost everything. Winter left it without a roof over her head, which only tightens the need, as Gofundme reports .

While the donations for the family are already flowing after the New Year's Eve fire, the other affected family also has hope for support. "Every donation helps," appeals the initiator of the campaign. The cohesion in such crisis times is crucial, and the rapid mobilization of helpfulness shows how much people are willing to stand together and help in emergencies.
