Last week a Hereford ISD family lost their home and belongings in a fire. The Hereford community response to help the family was overwhelming. Clothes, furniture, household items, monetary donations and so much more came pouring in from people who simply wanted to help a family in need. After practice last week, Herd football players and coaches stepped in to help with the next part. They loaded up the donated items, delivered them to the family and helped set everything up in their home. Thanks guys!
