Cliff and Darlene, my parents, were caught in the devastating Spokane fires and lost everything. Their home, car, clothes, and even irreplaceable family photos and heirlooms were destroyed. The impact has been overwhelming, and they are now facing the challenge of starting over from nothing.

The loss has been especially hard because so many memories and treasured items are gone forever. Cliff and Darlene have always been the kind of people who reach out to help others in need, whether it was offering a warm meal, a listening ear, or a place to stay. Now, they find themselves needing support from the community they have always cared for.

The funds raised will help Cliff and Darlene replace basic essentials, secure temporary housing, and begin the long process of rebuilding their lives. Every donation, no matter the size, will make a real difference as they work to recover from this tragedy. If Cliff and Darlene have ever supported you, we ask that you help support them in this time. Your kindness and generosity will mean the world to them as they navigate this difficult journey.
