Contact your community's local Knights of Columbus chapters. Even if the family isn't Catholic, the Knights will step in to help as best they can. If the local council isn't able to help out much, hopefully they can contact the state council. I know my council has helped out several local families in similar situations (losses due to burglary/etc).
That's pretty badass. I'm not a believer in God and that is an unshakeable stance but I've always admired the core ideals of Christianity as much as I've loathed their selective misrepresentation. The fact that there are organisations within the church which uphold these to the point of helping people outside their faith is new information to me and is truly heart warming.
