'It has caused a lot of ease in terms of their concern about rebuiliding and given them hope about having their own building to return to.'
A fundraiser for three Louisiana churches destroyed by fires earned almost $1.9 million, with donations skyrocketing after celebrities raised awareness about the fundraiser following the Notre Dame Cathedral blaze in Paris.
"It has caused a lot of ease in terms of their concern about rebuilding and given them hope about having their own building to return to," Freddie Jack, the president of the Seventh District Baptist Association, which organized a GoFundMe donations campaign for the trio of churches, told Newsweek."People are very excited, and they’re very grateful and thankful."
"All of your generous donations will be disbursed equally among all three churches for not only rebuilding their sanctuaries, but for the purchase of all necessities lost in the fires, including pews, sound system, musical instruments," the fundraising page read.
