How Online Angels was started in May 19, 2000
I started a few lists on yahoo to make friends one was a craft group we chatted about all crafts, one was a prayer group, a recipe group, and a chat group to talk about our families and day to day stuff. We became not only friends but like family and we prayed together, raised families together and crafted together. On January 21,1999 we had a house fire where we lost almost everything in the house, the house was damaged very badly inside thank God the frame was there. We did not have insurance as we couldn't afford it as we were trying to fix up the house. Our family, friends, & neighbors all helped us raise not only the funds, wood, household items, clothes, & toys to get us to the point that not only my Husband, but his two brothers could rebuild the inside of the house while we lived in our old camper. The three of them worked long hours ever day until the house was to the point where we could move back in and still rebuild it. It was a rough few months but we prayed alot, hoped for the best and moved back into the house with alot of work ahead of us. My husband and I were so grateful for all the help everyone gave to us and we were thinking of a way to help others and that is how Online Angels was born in May 19, 2000. We still have alot of work to do in the house here it is 6 years later and we still can't get house insurance as it is high risk and everyone wants it completely done or they want a high premium which we can't afford. Thru prayers and hard work we will achieve our goal in getting the house done and acquiring insurance for it. We thank those who helped us get thru such a rough time in our lives whom without their love, friendship, prayers and encouragement we would not be as far as we are today. We also want to thank each and every Online Angel volunteers who have helped us strive thru the hard years getting this wonderful charity off the ground and helping us get to where we are now helping so many world wide!
