Aid for Strauchman Family's Tragic Loss

Donation protected
Hello, I am Becky Ledesma and I am the daughter of Russ and Terri Strauchman. I am starting this go fund me in hopes that we can raise some funds to help my family in this time of great tragedy and loss.

Russ and Terri Strauchman have experienced the tragic loss of their home due to a fire that started in the early morning on April 30th. Unfortunately, their home was not insured. When they moved into this house, there were some structural issues that made the home uninsurable. They had been putting every penny they have to get their house up to date to be able to insure it. This tragedy hit just as they were getting ready to finish all of the renovations needed to make it insurable. This fire was a total loss and has devastated this family. Because they had been putting all their money towards the renovations, they do not have the funds to rebuild.
Russ and Terri went through a battle to adopt their 4 grandkids 11 yrs ago in an effort to keep their family together. They are still in the process of finding a place to restart. They are in need of everything at this point.
Terri (grandma) is 63 and just had a major back surgery leaving her in a very fragile state medically as she is still recovering. Russ (grandpa) is 64, and there are 4 grand kids that live with them and still rely on them. The grandkids are as follows: a 16 year old boy, a 15 year old boy, a 14 year old girl, and a 12 year old boy.
If anyone has information on where to go for help, anywhere that helps uninsured home owners suffering from this type of tragedy, anywhere to find information on temporary to permanent housing situations, or anyone who has leads on places to get all the things they need for daily living at affordable pricing, please make sure to reach out. We are desperately trying to do anything we can to help. If you can donate any amount, we would be forever grateful. If you can’t donate then please share and get this information out there so that hopefully anyone with the ability to help will see it.. Thank you and god bless
