Rebuild Bill and Stacy's Home After Fire
Donation protected
Hi everyone, and thank you so much for taking the time to read this. My name is Bre Eriksen and I live in Shoreline, Washington. I am making this GoFundMe on behalf of my coworker, Karel Vandepaverd (who's not very "tech-y" and hey, nothing wrong with that), who lives with his wife, Sylvia, in a tight-knit mobile home community in Kenmore, Washington.
Karel wants to set up a way for the community to help his dear friends/long-time neighbors, Bill (Weaver) and Stacy, who lost their mobile home and two dogs in a fire on 8/5/24 (news article here: https://komonews.com/news/local/two-dogs-perish-in-kenmore-mobile-home-fire-no-other-injuries-reported-injuries-investigation-incident-shoreline-fire-department).
While no amount of money can replace their precious family members, Bill is working with Karel to figure out the long process of what will be rebuilding his home. Karel figures it will be about $50,000 for materials alone, so we are starting with that as our fundraising goal. It's still really early in the process so we don't know how much permits or contractors will be or anything like that yet.
The property managers have offered a dumpster to Bill so Karel is also wanting to set up a "work party" soon where everyone can come help tear down the fire damage.
Thank you for your support; every little bit helps.
