A donation fund has been created for Trina and Amila, owners of Tara Fusion Cuisine , who suffered great loss in the fire at Colonial Springs Building 3. They lost everything, and now must find a new apartment, and have encountered security deposits, broker fees, not to mention all of the furniture, clothing, cookware, art tools, decorations they once had.

Trina has returned to work as chef, but it’s day by day as she processes what happened. Your cheer brings her cheer, so give her a hug or blow her a kiss 😘 You may see Amila behind the counter when he’s not at his job too!

ALBB’s article is on the blog now. Readers have inquired how they can help. Tara Fusion’s food neighbor, Moreish New York in the Hudson Valley Food Hall has organized a donation page for them, should you feel inclined to help. Her food family is rallying behind them, a most of their family is in Sri Lanka (Trina) and Bangladesh (Amila). Here’s the URL:

PS: We are in touch with Captain Jesseyna from Salvation Army Beacon about her efforts for collection and coordination for the building. Will update as we learn more.
