Family Lost All In Sand Fire

Donation protected
We are starting this gofundme on behalf of a very sweet family that has just lost everything in the Sand Fire overnight July 23, 2016.  The Franken-Bolik family are away on  vacation in Hawaii and will be coming home to nothing.  The house sitter was able to get their dogs and one cat but the other family cat and their livestock were lost.  They have only each other and the clothes that they packed for a week in paradise.  To make matters worse the father's mother and brother(with a young family also) live a couple miles down the canyon and are victims of this same fire,  so  their support system is in catastrophe as well.

Chris and Sandy lived and worked out of their home.  Everything is gone.  They are starting over from nothing with nothing.  They have a 7 year old son,Max, and  4 year old Maddy.  We would like to take some of the financial burden off of them so that they can get back on their feet, start to rebuild their lives-personal and professional, get their kids into school, and heal emotionally as a family. They are kind, loving and generous people who would never ask for something like this on their own but so desperately need help right now. 

Please send love, prayers and any generosity you can spare for them.  Every and any contribution would be so greatly appreciated and go directly to them.  If you can not afford to donate now please share this on your facebook page and ask everyone else to as well, so that we can spread the word and together, as a community, help lift this wonderful family back up .
