Calling all friends, prayer warriors and family:

Hi, I'm Traci Ignacio. My sister, Ashley and my niece, Bryn lost their home due to the Park fire in Butte County, California. They live in a town called Cohasset, near Chico. This fire started at Bidwell Park from arson, a man lit his car on fire and pushed it over a ravine causing a fire to take the small Northern California community by storm. Yesterday my sister had only a short amount of time to grab a few of her belongings and her dog before the mandatory evacuation order. Today, my sister received confirmation the house and everything they own are gone.

I never thought I would have to reach out and ask for help, but Ashley and Bryn need our help to get back on their feet. We need to find temporary housing options, then permanent housing, replace clothes and necessities. Bryn will be starting school soon and needs all the things involved with back-to-school; clothes, supplies, backpack, etc.

Please share this GoFundMe and donate if you can, from the bottom of our hearts, we appreciate any help. I will update as I get more information available.

As you can imagine, the shock we are feeling is indescribable. I'm incredibly grateful my sister is safe and my niece is here in Houston with us. However, we need to get them reunited and show them they are not alone in rebuilding their life. And of course, all prayers are welcomed to lift them up during this difficult time.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read and share.
