Lost everything in wildfire

Hello, my name is Gabrielle Tilt and I am starting a go fund me for my dad, Fred Richens. Tragically, his house on the Shuswap burned down in the Adams Lake/Bush Creek wildfire last Friday. While at work, he received the evacuation order to leave immediately. He was not allowed to return home to save his cat or retrieve anything at all from the house due to safety. He is left with only what he took to work that morning. He lived in his house since 1991.

He's got a lot of ground to make up and doesn't know when or if government assistance is going to kick in and is now faced with rebuilding his life at 74. Anything we can raise for him would be incredibly appreciated during this difficult time to try and replace some things that he lost and get him back on his feet.
