MANCHESTER, NH — A local outreach that ministers to kids in the Wilson Street neighborhood has launched a YouCaring site to help direct donations to the families displaced by Monday’s fire.

The ROCA Kidz Club says money and items donated via YouCaring will help defray funeral costs, hotel stays for displaced families “and as many meals as we can offer.”

Fire crews responded to 198 Wilson Street early Monday after several 911 calls came in reporting a fire, which appears to have originated in the rear porch area. Four people were killed in the blaze, which remains under investigation by the State Fire Marshal.
