Billy Gorden is a beloved resident of Topaz Ranch Estates, NV, known for his talent as an artist and his skill as a handyman. Recently, a wildland fire swept through the area, burning out of control and destroying Billy’s single-family home, his motorhome, and several family-owned cars. In total, eight acres were burned, and the main house was lost. The devastation has left Billy without a place to live and without the possessions he spent a lifetime building.
Billy is 67 years old and relies on Social Security, supplementing his income with handyman work and his art. The fire destroyed all of his art supplies and tools, leaving him unable to earn a living. At his age, this kind of tragedy makes it much more difficult for him to bounce back, and the loss of his home and livelihood has been overwhelming. The funds raised will help Billy secure temporary housing, replace essentials, and rebuild his art supplies and tools so he can regain his independence and continue contributing to the community he loves.
I know that there are so many kind humans reading this who would be willing to help Billy get back on his feet. His most pressing need is housing. If you have a trailer or motor home not in use, donating it to Billy will make it much easier for him to begin rebuilding his life. Any support you can offer—whether through a donation or by sharing this fundraiser—will make a meaningful difference for Billy as he works to recover from this devastating loss.
