About:

Renee Green is a hard-working single mom with six boys ranging in age from 16 to 1. On August 13, 2007 their home and all their posessions were destroyed in a fire -- leaving them with nothing but their precious lives and the clothes on their backs. Every single thing belonging to Renee and the boys was destroyed. School supplies. Clothing. Shoes. Appliances. Toys.

Everything.

The community was formed to help Renee and the kids get back on their feet once the initial local response to her plight tapers off. Anyone who's lived through loss knows too well that the initial outreach always ends -- but the need goes on.

fire_fic was created for fans who want to help, and fans who just want that story/vid/icon they've always dreamed of. The idea was taken from

fandom_charity, but instead of donating to the charity of your choice, you'll be donating to directly support Renee and her family.

Every penny -- and every word or pixel -- will make a difference in their lives.

Here's how it works:

Fan #1 posts a challenge, such as "Please write me Supernatural fic." Fan #2 replies with, "I'll write you a fic if you give X amount of money to Renee's fund." Fan #1 agrees. Obviously, you can do it the other way around too and offer to write/make vids etc. even if no challenge has been posted yet.

Remember that both parties are equally important! An offer or request without takers is a sad thing. Read through the posts and see if you can find anything to your liking!

This is a multifandom charity community. There are no restrictions on what can be requested. Pairings and kinks you find here may not be your personal preference, but we ask that you respect everyone. No judgement, no flaming.

Non-fannish requests are welcome, too. This is a charity comm and our purpose is to raise money, so any way that works, works fine.

Fic and art created for this community may be shared with others only if the creator and the person they were made for both agree to this. If you're unsure, ask.

Do not post fics and graphics in

fire_fic itself - such posts will be deleted! We've created

fire_fiction as a place for donors, authors and artists to post their contributions.

A note on sharing: please get the permission of the person ordering your fic or art before posting it. Remember, you're creating for them -- not for yourself! They must agree to posting. And once they do, please post at

fire_fiction.

Paying for your purchases/donating to Renee's Fund:

There is no set donation. Give from your heart.

Do not send checks or cash directly to writers or artists under any circumstances; anyone trying to benefit financially from the community will be banned.

Monetary donations can be deposited directly into Renee's savings account via PayPal. Simply click the button and follow the instructions at the paypal site.

To donate non-material goods and services, or to send gift cards: please e-mail sweptawaybayou @ aol. com.

If you see any unsuitable behavior in this community, contact lost_akasha @ hotmail.com. If you have any suggestions on ways the community could be improved, please do the same.

Thanks to the maintainers of

fandom_charity for their inspiration. We've adapted the rules and user info from their community here.
