Help Needed. Vehicles Taken By Storm.

Donation protected
Sitting out the storm this past Thursday, August 8th, my husband and I heard an extremely loud explosion, glass shattering, and our house suddenly shook. When we went to see what happened, we could not see out our back door or the two nearby windows. A large oak tree had fallen from the hill behind our house and landed on our porch and our cars. Unbelievably, our cars were totaled. Power lines were torn down in our yard, and the power was out in our area. This site does not permit enough photos to show the many photos we have to show the extent of the damage. We didn't have comprehensive insurance. My husband worked out of the back of his vehicle Neither he or I have a vehicle to drive. We are in desperate need of transportation. We live in a deeply rural area, so alternative transportation isn't readily accessible. We cannot believe this has really happened. Thankfully no one was hurt.

Some kind people suggested to us that we should make a GoFundMe page. When we shared this suggestion with a couple of friends, they agreed. Initially, we were embarrassed, but the hard truth is that this is our best hope, at present, in this difficult situation. To arrive at a goal amount as required by GoFundMe, I tried to determine a reasonable amount for a used car. We will be happy to post what we are able to work out. If you are unable to assist, please consider sharing our post. Thank each and every one of you who may care or share. Stay safe.
