Hello,

My name is Bob Dahm and I am fundraising for my very good friend Jamie Farnum. Jamie, age 72, recently lost his mobile home and most of it's contents to water damage. Insurance has paid pennies on the dollar and other bills are mounting. It can cost $10,000 just to remove the damaged mobile home because of asbestos. A new mobile home costs on average $82,000 and used homes are scarce. In addition, all the beds, furnishings, clothing and most of his possessions are either water damaged or moldy.

Jamie is beyond generous with his time and resources. He gave me and my 2 year old daughter a place to live when we hit hard times and I know of others who have experienced his deep kindness.

Jamie is a professional musician and piano tuner, who does whatever it takes to make ends meet. The last year and a half have been especially hard since covid restrictions eliminated much of his livelihood.

The goal would be to raise enough money in the next 30 days to remove the damaged home and get a decent mobile home in place with the basic furnishings. $100,000 is a conservative estimate to get this done.

There may also be opportunities to help with cleanup and shopping for furniture and clothing plus helping to organize his tuning business. You can also hire his band or get your piano tuned.

What Jamie needs is for people to be as generous as he would be for you! Thank you!
