Help Mike and Connie

Dear friends, it is with a heavy heart that I share this fundraiser, and yet a hopeful one because i know how powerful community is and how well we all take care of each other.

Last night 12/04/17 Connie and Mike lost their family home in the Thomas fire in Ojai, CA.
They had to emergency evacuate late last night with no time to grab anything other than a small backpack and a change of clothes. They have lost almost all of their possessions, clothes, furniture, family keep sakes etc. 
They have lost their whole home.

After evacuating the went to a friends house and had to evacuate from their this afternoon. They went to another friends house and I just heard word that they are now evacuating for a 3rd time.

During this challenging time they need support to make it through this transition, whilst they try to rebuild their lives, and find a new home.

Connie and Mike are very dear to me, and are truly some of my favorite people in this life. They both have such huge hearts, and spend a lot of their energy and resources helping others in need. It is with this knowledge of them, that I ask you to help them.

I invite you to support them however you can, all donations are appreciated, and every little bit truly does help.

Thankyou for your generosity <3

In love and reciprocity.
