Hello dear reader,

With a heavy heart I must announce that Carmen Spagnola's home has been lost to wildfire today Friday August 7th. Carmen lives on a rural farm in BC's Okanagan with her beloved husband Ruben, her adult child, and her elderly in-laws.

They have lost all of their belongings to the fire which is still burning.

Anything you can contribute to support will go directly to them. We will share more updates as they come in.
