We're Bob & Brianna Rider. We are small business owners impacted by the firestorm known as the Valley Fire.  The fire swept through our community of Hidden Valley Lake, CA claiming homes & businesses in its path. Our two businesses, Bob Rider Photography  & Lakeshore Sports , still stand but remain shuttered for the forseeable future. Our communtiy remains under evacuation today and for an indefinite amount of time to come. Once the evacuation order is lifted, we will cope with the fact that our businesses (and home!) have suffered the complete loss of infrastrure to provide utilities for us to operate. All will, eventually, be restored. 

We don't want to lose our livelyhood! Help us keep our local businesses alive while our community rebuilds! We need our community and our community needs us!

The funds raised via this campaign will allow us to continue to pay our vendors and overhead expenses including rent, payroll, insurance, and many other incidental things that go along with operating our brick & mortar businesses.

Our businesses have been part of the Lake County landscape for over a decade. Our hope is to remain a part of that landscape, however changed it may be, for years to come.

If you feel compelled, we would be grateful for your help in keeping our businesses afloat through this disaster.

My wife and I thank you sincerely.
