Account established to help Fresno State students in fire losses

A bank account has been established to help three senior students at California State University, Fresno whose three-bedroom apartment near campus was heavily damaged by fire Tuesday evening.

The apartment occupants, Molly Kaiser, Lindsay Thomas and Theresa Warwick, lost schoolwork, furniture, clothing, computers and personal photos and papers in the blaze at Bulldog Village, west of campus on Cedar Avenue.

The fire’s cause was under investigation by the Fresno Fire Department. Firefighters confined the flames to one apartment. Smoke damaged another, but there were no injuries

Bulldog Village has relocated the three to a different unit. To help the fire victims, donations may be made through any Bank of America branch in their names. For more information, contact Laura Hachman at radial027@csufresno.edu.
