Community members and emergency workers gathered in Boerum Hill for a donation driver and fundraiser for the children's family.

An 8-year-old girl and her 6-month-old brother were pulled from the Wyckoff Houses on Sunday, after the building was deliberately set on fire.

22-year-old Thaddeus Boone is charged with attempted murder and arson. Police say he torched his girlfriend's apartment after an argument.

The injured children are the girlfriend's younger siblings.

To donate to the family, you can call (347) 460-PTA3 or send an email to p.s.38ptabrooklyn@gmail.com for the link to donate on PayPal.
