MARION COUNTY, Miss. — A corrections officer lost her home and all of her belongings in a house fire Thursday.

WDAM.com reported that the Marion County Regional Correctional Facility is collecting donations for Lashundra Magee and her four children, ages 13, 7, 6 and 2.

“We’ve been taking up donations, money, clothes, food, hygiene,” Capt. Tenesha Martin said. “Anything anyone is willing to donate. Everything. Only thing they had was the clothes they had on. Only thing she had was her work uniform, which she was in when I took her to her home to see it in flames. Nothing could have been salvaged at all.”

Donations are being dropped off at the front search area of the jail.
