Lost everything in fire

Donation protected
Our Waubonsee Community College colleague, Katiewu Thomas (Assistant Professor of Interpreter Training and Sign Language) has just experienced a heart-wrenching loss - her home was destroyed by a devastating house fire started by a bolt of lightning.

In this time of hardship, we're reaching out to our compassionate community to come together and offer a helping hand.

Every contribution, no matter how small, will make a significant impact in helping Katiewu and her husband rebuild their life from the ground up.

Your generosity will go towards replacing essential belonging and assisting in the daunting task of starting anew. Let's surround Katiewu with the love and support she deserves during this trying time. Please donate and share this campaign widely to make a real difference in her life. Thank you for your kindness and empathy.

In spite of the loss, Katiewu still finds a teachable moment…want to learn two new signs? See the video!

Thank you,
The Waubonsee Faculty Council
