Support Ianto & Linda During This Final Chapter

WHAT IS NEEDED

Help us care for Ianto Evans while he has been placed in hospice. Currently his wife Linda is his sole support system during this precious and difficult time. This is too much for one person with minimal help to handle alone and they need our help. Our goal is to surround Ianto and Linda with care, dignity, companionship, and practical support for whatever time remains.

THE CURRENT SITUATION

Ianto is nearing the end of life this time around on this earthly plane. This past year has been challenging due to Ianto's decline in health, and these last few weeks have taken an extraordinary toll on them both —physically, emotionally, and practically.

We are raising funds to pay caring, and compassionate helpers who can come and provide hands-on support.

YOUR MONEY WILL PAY FOR CAREGIVERS who will...

ABOUT THEIR WORK

For decades, Ianto Evans and Linda Smiley of Cob Cottage have given so much of themselves to the natural building movement. Through their teaching, writing, building, experimentation, and generous sharing of knowledge, they have inspired countless people to think differently about shelter, sustainability, community, and what it means to live more lightly on this Earth.

HOW YOU CAN HELP

If their work has touched you, taught you something, inspired you, or simply made your life a little richer, please consider giving a bit back now.

Every contribution—large or small—will help bring another pair of hands, another caring presence, and another moment of relief to Linda as she walks alongside Ianto through this final transition.

If you aren't able to contribute financially, sharing this campaign is a meaningful way to help along with sending prayers and light their way.

With gratitude,

Tammy Van, friend, and colleague of Ianto and Linda

Director of Seven Fires Foundation

Disclaimer: The funding goal is an unknown of course, depends on how long Ianto choose to stay in his earth suit. We will keep you updated as the days/weeks progress. All funds will be distributed by Seven Fires Foundation directly to those providing care. Any funds "left over" at the end of Ianto's life, will be either refunded or paid forward in a way to support Cob Cottage Company legacy to Linda as appropriate per donor discretion. We will close the campaign when he chooses to leave. Any questions, just reach out to Tammy.
