The Directors and Management of Champ Group Companies, together with Southey Attorneys in Newcastle, have created a trust fund to help raise funds for the De Jager family, who lost their three-year-old toddler in a house fire this morning.
The De Jager family, who reside in a Wendy house on a relative’s property in Amajuba Park, was awoken to the flames that engulfed their home at around 01:00 and quickly tried to escape the inferno.
The father, mother and their eight-year-old daughter, Liany, were able to get out in time but tragically, their three-year-old daughter, Kayli passed away as a result of the fire that engulfed the structure.
“We request the community of Newcastle to assist with food and clothes for the family,” said Johan Pieters of Champ Marketing.
