Hello, my name is Nish and I am fundraising for John Goldsmith. Over the past several years, John has been working resolutely and tirelessly on salvaging the materials he needs to build a home. Three years ago, he purchased land in Danby and built a barn to store the building materials he collects. Every week, he would buy something else he needed, such as components of the structure, and electrical and plumbing systems. John worked on assembling and constructing everything by hand, with painstaking effort. Most recently, he had just finished milling all of the wood boards he needed. At around 1:30 am on August 12, an inverter failure caused a fire, burning down John's trailer, shed, all of his belongings, materials and tools, and the foundation of the house he was constructing. Though he was able to escape, John lost everything he owned. Please share and donate to help us rebuild. All contributions will go directly to John, and support his effort to replace what he lost, and get him back on track to build his dream home.
