Jolicouer Family House Fire Relief

On February 3, Castlegar's Jolicouer family awoke to smoke and flames in the family home and were forced to flee into the snowy night. The father Ben, his teenage daughter and son, and family cat escaped unharmed, but sustained considerable smoke and fire loss of personal property.

The family is seeking any donations towards immediate food, clothing, and shelter costs, as well as pet supplies for their cat.

I have set up this GoFundMe on their behalf, with Ben being my longtime Jiu Jitsu coach and friend.


Any amount helps!  Thank you!
