Rebuild our flooded house
Donation protected
On Tuesday, February 7th, our house was flooded with water from the San Lorenzo River, the river raised 23 feet and went over the bump in our driveway which was built to keep water out. The water stayed in our yard, like a lake and completely flooded our basement, trailer and shed and destroyed thousands of dollars of clothes, tools, books, art, appliances and anything else you can think of.
Our driveway is completely destroyed and will be around twenty thousand dollars to fix, along with rebuilding the bedroom in the basement, buying new power tools, new washer and dryer, water heater and replacing almost everything we had. The basement was used as a storage area, laundry room and we had a bedroom there, and everything was completely underwater during the flood. Only things that were in sealed cans, bottles, and some storage containers are still salvageable.
The house is only me (Timothy, 15), my sister (Amberlee, 17) and my mom (Nathalie) and my sister's bedroom is completely destroyed. Our water heater was entirely submerged too, so we have no hot water.
The house is essentially unliveable until we have the foundation fixed. Please share the link with friends and anything helps, thanks!
