Online Fundraiser Created for Displaced Carroll Street Families
A neighbor in Carroll Gardens has created a fund with a $5,000 goal.
As a crane stands outside of 241 Carroll Street after an morning, at least one local Carroll Gardens neighbor is already taking steps to try to build up a nest egg for the displaced families who lived there.
Resident Kristina Frantz Alexandre has created a fund on FundRazr with a $5,000 goal for helping residents who have lost their home due to the collapsed brownstone. The money will be used to purchase Visa gift cards, she wrote to Patch.
