Martha Ertzinger and Family Home Fundraiser

Our neighbour Martha Ertzinger and her 2 sons, Michael and Ian lost their home early this morning to a fire. They have been renting for the last few years in the cul de sac at the end of Edinburgh and Gilmore.  Ian is a student attending BCIT and Michael is a talented musician who had built a recording studio on the main floor of their house, a link to his music is michaelrene.ca They had no insurance. With COVID Michael had no gigs this last year he was not able to renew their house insurance. This is for them as for any of us a devastating loss, their home, their possessions their livelihood. They will need to rebuild, they will need to find a new home. North Burnaby is a pretty great place live, they will need a new home pretty much immediately if anyone has any leads this will be as important as any funds as we may be able to help them with. They will need funds to start over and Michael will need funds to rebuild all he has lost. I am grateful they made it out alright. It is truly amazing how our entire lives can change in a matter of a few minutes. Please, any help or kindness for our neighbours will be much appreciated.
