Help Ruth and Chris rebuild after Marshall Fire
Donation protected
So many of you have asked how you can help Ruth and Chris Leibs, and their children Samantha and Calvin, who lost their home on Thursday, Dec 30, 2021 to the devastating Marshall Fire in Louisville Colorado. Their entire neighbourhood is just gone. Luckily Ruth and Chris were able to escape with their children and dog, Triscuit, but there was no time to pack or rescue anything from the home before evacuating.
While they are currently staying with family, they have their immediate needs of clothing and necessities met thanks to the generous donations of friends and the community. But once they find new housing, they will be starting from scratch. So, we (her family) felt that the best way to support them would be monetary donations to assist with the expense of furnishing a new place literally from the ground up. Thank you to everyone who has reached out. These donations will go directly to Ruth and Chris to help ease the financial burden of the upcoming months and possibly years as they rebuild their home, replace lost possessions and navigate everything else that will come after this huge loss.
To all who will or have already donated time/money/items, Thank You. Our family is truly grateful. We feel blessed to have so many wonderful people surrounding us that want to help support Ruth and Chris and their family after this devastating tragedy.
Thank You,
Frances Burden (Ruth's sister)
