GoFundMe campaign started for Lethbridge family after fire destroys home

A GoFundMe campaign has been started for a Lethbridge family who lost their home in a fire Tuesday.

The blaze destroyed two houses along Fairmont Boulevard south and seriously damaged a third.

Felice Stewart is organizing the fundraiser and has set a goal of $20,000.

She says her sister-in-law, Emily, was at work and her husband, Brent, and four children were at home when the fire started at about 2:30pm.

A passerby saw smoke in the garage and alerted them to get out.

There were no injuries.
