The photo you can see above is all that is left of our sister's house.  

Our mother (Bonnie), sister (Ingrid), nephew (Jude) and niece (Sadie) are all victims of the Camp Fire in California, which burned both of their houses and entire town—Paradise—to the ground. They have lost everything.

Thanks to the kindness of friends and strangers alike, they all have made it out alive and have a place to stay for the time being.

We want to help them get back on their feet, and have had offers from friends and family to help, so we've set up this GoFundMe campaign to provide them with some much needed funds to get started again.

Thank you to everyone who has offered to help and to anyone who can contribute even the smallest amount.



This campaign was started by Mike and Jeff Van Campen (with help from Letitia and Joanne Van Campen). 

The photo below is a picture of the three Van Campen kids—Ingrid, Mike and Jeff—the last time we were all together in Chico. Happier times.
