Our hearts are with one of our Andover National Karate families right now. 🥋❤️

Many of you may know Penelope Gast, who earned her Black Belt with us in December 2023. This past week, Penelope and her father Neil, an Andover firefighter, were involved in a tragic oil fire and are now facing a long road to recovery.

Penelope suffered severe burns and will require multiple surgeries, ongoing medical care, and months of healing ahead. Neil was also seriously injured while protecting his family.

If you are able to help support the Gast family during this incredibly difficult time, please consider donating or sharing their GoFundMe. Every contribution, prayer, and share means the world. ❤️

Please keep Penelope, Neil, and their entire family in your thoughts.
