<div>Hi my name is Antonio Cosby and my grandparents, Manuel and Emma Alvarado, recently lost their home in Altadena to the Eaton Fire. They’ve lived in Altadena since 1972 and still remember buying the house.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Emma, my grandma, would sell homemade flour tortillas and burritos to support her family. While Manuel, my grandpa, worked different jobs ranging from a truck driver to making styrofoam in a factory. These memories are just a few of the many memories they’ve made in their beautiful home. After 65 years together, this natural disaster has proved to be the most difficult. But their optimism, gratitude, and trust in God has kept them in positive spirit amidst this time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I rarely do GoFundMe but I am so heartbroken. While we can’t replace everything they’ve lost, we’re trying our best to support them.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>There is such a GREAT outpour to help but families are getting clothes with no closet to put them in, food with no fridge to put them in.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’re currently trying to help them with their daily expenses, bills, and accommodations during evacuation.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It would mean the world to me if you could help support my grandparents during this period. Any donations, big and small, are deeply appreciated and felt. I’m personally donating a significant portion of my savings to this effort, and I’m asking for your help to multiply this impact.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please share this GoFundMe. You can follow me on how I am helping my family and others via YouTube and Instagram.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We want to say thank you in advanced for all donations, thoughts, and prayers! This time has been truly devastating for our community so we are deeply grateful for anything you’ve decided to give.
</div>

Support Manuel and Emma After Eaton Fire

The community has been reaching out in support of Bree’s family and wanting to donate to the cause. First off, we are SO THANKFUL for EVERYONE standing up for justice and saying her name! We’re not stopping until we truly get justice! All of you are such a blessing! It’s amazing! <br /><br />Second of all, we are thankful for the offers for donations. My sister and niece are too proud to say it, but this is a tough fight and it does take a toll. They’re both hard workers and they’re missing out on some work (and sleep!) in this fight for justice.<br /><br />We do not expect anyone to donate to this cause; your voices are being heard and that alone is so powerful! But because of all the calls and the overwhelming generosity, I have set up this account for them. <br /><br />You all are a blessing. Thank you so much again for everything! And let’s keep this fight for justice going! <br /><br />#justiceforbre

Justice for Breonna Taylor (official)(#BREEWAYY)

<p><strong>Update 3/12/20:  </strong><br />Words cannot express the gratitude we have for each and every one one of you. The generosity, in all ways, that you have shown and continue to show is beyond anything we could have ever imagined.  All of your contributions have given us the strength and means to start rebuilding our life and for that we are eternally grateful.  It will never be forgotten. May your kindness circle back to you 10 fold.  <br />As far as moving forward, we've been working day and night sifting, sorting, ordering, and organizing and have finally finished updating our little workspace on our property to tend to all wholesale.  As of next week, High Garden tea can begin filling your cups again, at our beloved coffee shop and restaurant partners, as you have overwhelmingly filled ours.  <br />Our next step is getting enough inventory built back up to resume online orders.  We are looking at beginning-mid April.  Online will eventually have even more selections than before so you can have your own little High Garden apothecary right in your own home.  <br />As far as brick and mortar location, we are not looking to simply recreate High Garden as it once was for a variety of reasons.  One very important reason is that we are allowing space and stillness to receive messages of how High Garden wants and needs to evolve to better serve this community that has kept it alive.  The only certainty is that it is no longer a place birthed only from our (Joel and Leah's) spirit, path, and love.  It will rise as a space birthed from the entire community and beyond's kindness, vision, love, and connection.  It is all of ours.  If you have insight or a dream of what your High Garden could be, please do share it with us! email us at <a href="mailto:[email redacted]">[email redacted]</a>.  <br />Do not mourn the 935 Woodland shop.  Admittedly, when I think of it my heart longs to step through those doors and feel its warmth one more time.  But then, I think about the fact that she stood there for us as a nature outpost in the middle of the city embodying and signifying Mother Earth, holding safe space for us when needed.  When it was time, she became nature.  She flew, she roared, she scattered seeds all over this state to burst up from the ground this spring.  She expanded and she will rise again in just that manner.  An expansion and expression of an unstoppable force... LOVE.  <br />Beyond grateful, <br />Leah, Joel &amp; little Woods<br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>Update 3/5/20: Hello friends, Leah and Joel here.</strong>  <br />We first want to thank you so much for coming to this page and offering much appreciated help.  If you are reading this, that means you must be part of our High Garden community and we want you as informed and involved as possible in this rebuild process.  High Garden is yours too.  <br />There are still plenty of unknowns, but as we begin to navigate the world of insurance, it looks like we aren't going to get anywhere near the needed funds to rebuild or restock what we had.  We are still extremely hopeful and optimistic but are changing the goal to $1 since the actual financial need for rebuild is so high, it would look overwhelming to see it.  Everything you donate is appreciated and the moment the first $1 rolled in here, we felt blessed.  Each $1 donated is one closer to a smaller business loan.  A large loan can create such stress on a business that it is difficult to succeed.  We may build a much smaller shop, we may start with minimum contents, we dream, we create, we will adjust as needed.  <br />For numbers people, here's where we are.  Contents, product and equipment of the shop we had equaled about $180,000 which we had built up over the past decade.  Insurance can cover $44,000 of that.  Leaving $136,000 <br />Building our last shop costed around $80,000, even with Joel and friends as builders and me as decorator and general contractor.  Thats lumbar, plumbing, electrical, structures, codes requirements, paint, etc, etc, etc.  It adds up so fast.None of this is insured so there is another $80,000 needed.  <br />Total need looking at around $216,000.  You have offered us $45,000 so far on here so take that down to $171,000! However, we can be smaller, we can have less inventory, we can be just a little further out of town.  We can work with anything so don't think we are waiting on the full amount to proceed.  We are just seeing all the possibilities before jumping in to anything.  <br />Thank you for everything.  Thank you for Maggy beginning this blessing of a page.  There has been so much devastation around us, it is remarkable that you have been so kind to us among all the need.  Thank you.  <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />3/4/20***I just talked to Leah and she was updating me on details. Unfortunately, insurance will only pay 1/7 of what they will need to rebuild, restock product, and replace equipment.  They are so grateful for your contributions. Thank you all again so much for everyone who has donated, will donate, sent good vibes and helping hands. You all are freaking awesome!<br /><br />My name is Maggy Wheeler and Leah and Joel are extremely long time best friends of mine. I had someone ask and wanted everyone to know this is a legit fund raiser completely for them.
</p>

<p>3/3/20 Words cannot even describe how sad the entire community is that High Garden Tea has suffered such terrible damages. Leah and Joel are two of the most selfless, nurturing humans on this planet. They never think twice to help anyone whether they know them or not and they pretty much never ask for any help. I really didn't even know what amount to put on here but any amount will help. I know they were concerned about their employees being out of a job right now (because that's what awesome people they are) so this could help with that, clean up,  childcare so they can handle things or anything insurance will not cover. Insurance only pays for contents. Any rebuilds will be out of their pockets. Leah and Joel work so hard to take care of our community and now its our turn to take care of them. <br /><br />We will let you know as soon as they begin cleaning because they will need lets of help. So if you cannot help by donating this is another huge way to help.<br /><img src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/45914628_158325425492322_r.jpeg" alt="45914628_158325425492322_r.jpeg" width="100%" media_type="3" />

High Garden Tea Rebuild

“We live on this speck called Earth - think about what you might do, today or tomorrow - and make the most of it.” - Neil deGrasse Tyson<br /><br />Hello there.  My name is Heather Bond, and I have the honor of introducing you to Bobby Holland.  I’ve known Bobby since 2015.  We are bandmates in The Daybreaks, as well as friends.  In fact, I consider myself one of Bobby’s best friends, but I imagine there are at least three hundred of you that feel the same.  Because that’s Bobby.  He is the guy you meet and within moments develop a friendship.<br /><br />Bobby is an extraordinary producer, engineer, and musician.  He has probably mixed a record for you or someone you know.  He’s a musical wizard, a genius - if I dare say so myself.  But if I could describe Bobby in a few words, I would say that he is openhearted, optimistic, and above all - generous.  You know that person in your life who does so much for you and everyone you know, and you can never figure out how to return the generosity?  Bobby never asks for anything.  With this GoFundMe, we, as a community, can finally return that love by helping him raise money for a stem cell treatment in Thailand. <br /><br /><strong>What is Bobby’s condition?</strong><br /><br />Bobby has Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) which is a genetic degenerative retina condition that causes him to slowly go blind. <br /><br /><strong>Has Bobby had treatment before?</strong><br /><br />Yes.  2 years ago, Bobby participated in an experimental stem cell clinical trial in Fort Lauderdale, Florida known as SCOTS (Stem Cell Ophthalmologic Treatment Study).  They took bone marrow out of his upper hip bone/lower back, separated the stem cells, and injected them into his eyes.  <br /><br /><strong>Did the treatment work?</strong><br /><br />Yes.  He experienced approximately 300% improvement in overall vision.  From a scientific standpoint, it was a massive success.  For Bobby’s day to day life, his 2% - 3% vision was increased to 6% - 8%. <br /><br /><strong> Why Thailand?</strong><br /><br />Bobby has been approved to participate in a cutting edge stem cell treatment in Thailand to help improve his vision.  Instead of bone marrow stem cells, they use amniotic stem cells - which are more potent.  This treatment will likely slow down or temporarily stop his progression, and has the potential to improve his vision dramatically. <br /><br />More questions about science related things?  Bobby is your guy, and he is an open book.  The most important thing to know about this GoFundMe is that we have the opportunity to help Bobby Holland.  We have the opportunity to change his life, and be part of something extraordinary.  In his words, “If I don’t do it, it won’t work.”  Somehow, Bobby remains one of the most optimistic, adventurous people I know - despite living with his condition.  Did I mention he’s a rock climber?  When he told me about this surgery, my instinct was to ask a million questions.  But the truth is, there’s only one question to ask, and that is:  How can I help?<br /><br />I hope you will join me in contributing to Bobby’s stem cell treatment in Thailand!  I hope from the bottom of my heart that together we can change his life.  Thank you for reading this.  Thank you Bobby, for allowing me to be a tiny part of your story.  You’re an inspiration to us all. <br /><br />To learn more about Bobby’s history with RP, prior treatment, and career- please watch this video: <br /><br /><a href="https://youtu.be/zRsnf7EpViY" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><a href="https://youtu.be/zRsnf7EpViY" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://youtu.be/zRsnf7EpViY</a></a><br /><br /><img src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/44678556_1578769773139004_r.jpeg" width="100%" media_type="3" alt="44678556_1578769773139004_r.jpeg" />

Help Bobby Holland see in 2020!

Our beloved friends at Gray Matters Studio were hit by the recent Nashville flood.  As many of you know, Gray Matters is home to so much love, music, and community.  These guys have been so generous with their creativity, resources, and hearts over the years.  And now it's time for us to give back.  The damages from the flood include lost recording gear and furniture.  Please help us restore Gray Matters back to its former glory.  Thanks in advance for your generosity.

<strong>Cy Winstanley</strong> is a <a href="http://www.tattletalesaints.com" target="_blank">songwriter,</a> guitarist, vocalist, runner and <a href="http://local.nashvillescene.com/event/the-station-inn/kelsey-waldon-and-friends" target="_blank">writer</a> from New Zealand who has lived in Nashville TN for the last 4 years.<br /><br />He is about to apply for a <strong>Green Card</strong>, so he can remain living and working in the USA, and is looking at a total bill of <strong>$USD10,000</strong>.<br /><br />He's using everything he has to reach this amount, selling guitars, amps and his savings. Despite this, he's still going to struggle to reach it (cos like, it's $10K guys!) and I don't want him to have to sell his spleen or his soul. Though maybe he should sell this jacket...<br /><br /><img class="not-resizable" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/22880180_1502235287.2498_funddescription.jpg" alt="" width="100%" /><br />All joking aside, if he can't raise the money, he'll have to leave. I don't want that and I know you don't either, so please chip in whatever you can to help him stick around and continue to be the productive and valued member of this amazing community we have here in Nashville. <br /><br />Our band, Tattletale Saints, moved here together 4 years ago to pursue touring careers both in that band and as sidemen, and we have already spent $10,000+ each on VISA's to allow us to live and work in the US.<br /><br />On a personal note, Cy and I have been through a lot in the last 20 years of friendship and this new life in Nashville wouldn't have been the same or even possible for me without him. I was lucky enough to win a Green Card earlier this year on the diversity lottery, which is why I didn't have to ask for the same financial help. Unfortunately Cy didn't.<br /><br />Immigration is an ever-changing thing here, and our current President is making it ever more stressful and difficult for all foreigners, both illegal and legal, to be here. If you want more information about VISAs/Green Cards and the costs involved go <a href="https://www.uscis.gov/greencard" target="_blank">here</a> .<br /><br />Being here is an expensive business for us, but we both love it and I want to help Cy continue to be here and <strong>KEEP AMERICA GREAT.</strong><br /><br /><a href="https://www.uscis.gov/greencard" target="_blank"><br /><br /><br /></a>

Keep Cy Here and America Great

If you know Allen Thompson you know that he is probably the friendliest face in all of East Nashville. His genuine kindness and positivity is rivaled only by his excellent musicianship. Allen is a friend to everyone and it's no secret that he's probably everyone's favorite in town as well. Recently, Allen went cliff jumping and hit the water in such a way where he shattered a vertabrae which required immediate surgery to fix. The next couple months for Allen (who works as a server/bartender outside of his touring band's schedule) can be made significantly easier if we can all give just a little bit. Supporting Allen is not only supporting the musical community here in Nashville, but is giving to someone who truly deserves it.

Help Allen Thompson!
