Support Polycam Team Members Who Lost Homes in LA Wildfires
Donation protected
Dear Friends, Family, and Tech Community,
Behind every great company are the people who pour their hearts into making it special. At Polycam, these team members aren't just colleagues – they're the visionaries who transform our world through technology. They're the innovators who bring magic into reality, turning everyday spaces into extraordinary 3D experiences. They're the problem-solvers who stay late to help users create something incredible, the voices of encouragement in our Slack channels, and the friends who celebrate each other's milestones.
Now, in a cruel twist of fate, some of these remarkable individuals have lost everything. The Los Angeles wildfires swept through their neighborhoods without warning, reducing homes to ashes. In mere hours, they lost not just their houses, but the foundations of their daily lives – the spaces where they dreamed up new features, the rooms where they celebrated breakthroughs, and the homes where they recharged after pushing the boundaries of what's possible.
How I'm Connected:
As a proud member of the Polycam team, I’m deeply connected to the individuals we’re raising funds for. These are my colleagues, my mentors, my friends – the people who inspire me daily with their passion and resilience.
How the Funds Will Be Transferred:
All funds raised through this GoFundMe campaign will be securely transferred to a dedicated Polycam account. From there, Polycam will distribute 100% of the donations directly to the affected team members. This ensures the funds reach them quickly and without any administrative deductions.
How the Funds Will Be Spent:
The funds raised will help our team members with immediate and long-term needs, including:
- Finding safe temporary housing
- Replacing essential daily items (clothing, toiletries, etc.)
- Securing basic transportation for work and daily activities
- Beginning the process of rebuilding their homes and lives
These team members have always been there for our community, working tirelessly to revolutionize how we see and interact with the world around us. Now they need our help to begin rebuilding their lives.
The immediate needs are overwhelming—these families need support now. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings them one step closer to stability.
If you've ever been amazed by Polycam's technology, helped by our incredible support team, or simply believe in supporting those who dedicate their lives to pushing the boundaries of what's possible, please consider donating or sharing this campaign.
Together, we can help these families begin to rebuild their lives and create a new foundation from which they can continue bringing magic into reality.
Thank you for helping our Polycam family during this devastating time.
Sincerely,
The Polycam Team
The funds raised will be transferred directly to Christopher Heinrich, Polycam's CEO, and he will send exactly half of the funds to Ethan Goldspier, Polycam's VP of Sales, via Zelle. Both individuals lost their entire homes and all of their belongings in the Palisades and Eaton fire.
