Hello, My name is Tutti. For ten years, my family owned a ranch in the tiny hamlet of Klamath River, CA, where the McKinney Fire has destroyed nearly every home and building. My rancher, Harold Smith, and his partner, Dita Tavenner, lost everything in the fire. They are caretakers of the Klamath River Lodge, and had no insurance, as they were not the owners. The owner also had no insurance. This is a picture of their home. They lost a car, a pickup, and all their possessions because they were not home at the time of the fire. Fortunately, the four horses they care for survived. At 83 years old, Harold wants to get back to the Klamath River, his home of 60 years, where he knows his surroundings and feels safe. I am fundraising for Harold and Dita to get a small 5th-Wheel they can park on the lodge property. If there is enough money raised, they also need a pickup to tow the trailer with and be able to get hay for the horses.
