Support my grandparents starting over after fire

Donation protected
On April 27th, 2025, my grandparents lost their home that they built themselves in 1982 due to a devastating fire. They put their blood, sweat, and tears into that house. They lost all their hard work and over 42 years' worth of memories within a matter of minutes. They were left with nothing. All of their furniture, vehicles, clothes, and heirlooms are ash now. Thankfully, they made it out safely, but my heart is breaking seeing them in this pain. If any of you know my grandparents, Linda and David Von Essen, you know that they are the sweetest souls and have always gone above and beyond for everyone around them. They don’t deserve this.

As of right now, they are wanting to try and rebuild their home. To anyone willing to donate to help them start over, thank you so much. A little bit does go a long way.

Funds will go directly towards:
  • Temporary housing
  • Food
  • Hygiene products
  • Clothes
