Nadia, Karl and Grant flood fund

If you're friends with Grant, Karl or Nadia, you've probably heard by now about the destruction of the house they were renting down on Burbank Place in Shorewood Hills.

If not, you should know flash flooding from the Aug. 20-21 storm that hit Dane County caused extensive flash flooding on Burbank Place. Water poured in through the basement windows and filled it all the way to the ceiling, destroying everything that was stored down there. The flooding also totaled all three of their cars.


While the cars should be covered by auto insurance, nothing in their basement was protected from flooding, meaning Grant, Karl and Nadia are on the hook for everything they lost down there.

Most of us don't have flood insurance because it's super expensive and the odds we'd ever use it are slim. But extreme weather does happen from time to time, so let's band together and help Grant, Karl and Nadia replace at least some of their lost belongings by collectively chipping in.
