If you can spare a dime, these little kids could sure use it.
They could also use your prayers, compassion, and love.
They've had so much heartache already, that it just doesn't seem right that they should have to bare the added burden of such extreme financial worries, at such a young age. They need help to shoulder it.
Please lend a hand
Kamari White was the first to know his parents were dead.
'We will do what we have to do to take care of these kids,' said Shanda Squire, holding her 6-year-old niece Ionia White on Wednesday. Ionia and her brothers, Daquan Gleason and Kamari White, survived the car crash that killed their parents. The children are living with relatives, who also must find money for funeral expenses. Michael and Iesha White did not have insurance.
Michael White, 36, and Iesha White, 28, died from trauma caused by the wreck Sunday in Berkeley County.
To help
Make donations to the White Memorial Fund at any Farmers & Merchants Bank branch to help pay for funeral costs. Leftover funds will benefit the children.
The 7-year-old was in the back seat of the family's 2002 Isuzu Rodeo on Sunday night when the vehicle skidded on its side and crashed violently into a utility pole on S.C. Highway 45 in rural Berkeley County. The family said the sport utility vehicle swerved to avoid an oncoming car.
Kamari crawled through the shattered glass and out the back window, but then he heard his 6-year-old sister, Ionia White, calling for him.
'He went back in not only to save his sister — he tried to save all of them,' maternal grandmother Sharon Gleason said.
The second-grader braved live power lines and re-entered the vehicle
