My name is Michaele, and I am reaching out for help after my farm in the

snoqualmie Valley was hit by a series of devastating events. First, historical flooding swept through my property, causing significant damage and leaving my land underwater. Just as I was beginning to assess the situation, a powerful windstorm struck, making things even more difficult. The combination of these disasters has left me facing urgent repairs and uncertainty about the future of my farm.

The most immediate need is to repair the damage to my livestock fencing and the roof of one of my buildings, which was partially blown off in the storm. In addition, one small structure that has weathered many floods in the past is now so damaged it is no longer safe and needs to be torn down. These repairs and removals are critical to keeping future livestock safe, and beginning the process of recovery. In addition to the physical damage, the flooding and storm have caused a loss of income, making it even harder to get back on my feet. Every bit of support will go directly toward these repairs, the safe removal of the damaged structure, and help me sustain my farm during this challenging time.

Thank you all for coming together and helping the farms that have been devastated by the historical flooding we have experienced in Washington State. Your kindness and generosity mean the world to me, and I am deeply grateful for any help you can provide as I work to rebuild and recover.
