On September 21st, an EF3 tornado hit the small town of Dunrobin on the outskirts of Ottawa, Ontario.  

The Russetts unfortunately lost all three barns and silo. They were completely ripped apart and they depend on those buildings to run their farm, which provides them with a significant portion of their income.

They have 3 children, two in university and one who is a grade 12 student.

Unfortunately, only their smallest barn was insured against wind damage, creating a huge financial burden to be able to restart.

This gofundme was set up in hopes to get a bit of financial aid in hopes of being able to rebuild.



Two of the barns and the silo before the tornado.


The aftermath: the same buildings after the tornado hit. They will have to be completely rebuilt in order to run the farm.
