Help Students Impacted By Brooklyn Center Fire
MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- More than 20 Twin Cities students lost their homes to an apartment fire earlier this week.
The Anoka-Hennepin School District says some of them came to school Monday in pajamas and without shoes.
The 21 children lived with their families at the River Glen Apartments in Brooklyn Center, which caught fire on Sunday night and the flames rekindled early Monday morning.
No one was hurt, but at least nine families are now homeless. The school district says most of them lost all of their belongings.
You can help by making a donation to the Anoka-Hennepin Educational Foundation.

Several children and families from a neighboring school district were also left homeless by the fire.
