Elizabeth Clay & Tony Urbanek Flood

Donation protected
Elizabeth Clay and her boyfriend, tattoo artist Tony Urbanek (Inkadinkadoo) were the victims of a flash flood that completely destroyed the home they share with Tony’s son and their daughter. The water rushed in so quickly that they were only able to take the clothes on their backs and their cats before fleeing their home on foot. They have lost everything - including their vehicles, which were crashed into by their neighbor's vehicle by the force of the water. Their borough (in Pittsburgh) declared their home uninhabitable, due to the sewage and mud the water brought in, and the damage it caused to all of their belongings. 

Although they have flood insurance, it will not be enough to replace all of their clothes, their daughter's toys, their vehicles, or the precious memories they lost in the disaster. They will need money to lease an apartment (including deposits), pay their bills - including the rest of the mortgage on their home, lease or purchase new vehicles, and for general living expenses. 

Please consider making a donation to help them get back on their feet. They received some funds from the American Red Cross to stay in a hotel for a few nights, but that won't last too long. They would welcome any clothing or toiletry expenses, but they don't currently have an address - even their mailbox got swept away.
