Help Ibou & family recover from water damage

Because expected and unexpected expenses are piling up, Ibou is asking if this fundraioser can be exteded  to try to cover additional expenses. The family is living in a hotel and food and ordinary needs are so much more expensive than at their apartment. They may be out of their apartment for 4-6 weeks. Thank you all, I know Ibou and his family are sincerely apprecitive of your help. 

My neighbor, Ibou Ngom and his family have suffered water damage to their apartment at the Tannery, and they need to replace all their furniture and many household goods. A fire in a neighboring apartment set off the sprinklers. Thankfully, no one was injured, but Ibou and his family have experienced almost total loss to their household goods. Ibou is a beloved member of the Oakland/Monterey Bay area drumming community. He has been a SPECTRA teaching artist extraordinaire through the Arts Council of Santa Cruz for over 20 years. When my daughter was in the 4th grade (she is 30 now ), he introduced her class to African drumming. Ibou has brought joy and music to thousands of children in our community. If you can find it in your heart to help this family, our Tannery community will be grateful.
