Lets help Quaid and Amanda!
Donation protected
Hello everyone,
As most of you know, on November 28th, thieves broke in to Quaid and Amanda Houskeeper's home and nearby office. They entered through windows and once inside, began filling their vehicle with the Houskeepers personal belongings. They ended up taking two brand new computers that had just been purchased a few weeks prior, a brand new television, much of Amanda's jewelry, and most of Quaid's rather extensive gun collection. Many of these items had been passed down for generations and had significant sentimental value. We have recently found out that, due to a multitude of reasons, insurance is not going to be much of a help. That is why we are asking for your help here.
I realize this is an odd request on gofundme. The Houskeepers are not starving, destitute, unhealthy or without shelter. What they are are some of the most giving people I have ever had the privilege of knowing. Good friends are hard to find in this world, and there are few I know as willing to serve others, regardless of the circumstances, than these two. This is not the first real loss of the year either, as they have suffered significant financial losses a few other times this year as well. What we are asking is enough money to help them recoup some of their lost items and remind them that they are loved and supported through these tough times, especially by those who have been supported by them. I have set the goal at $5000, and considering the number of friends and family they have, I think it is very doable. Please donate what you can, lets help them get back what was taken from them! I would like to see what we can get them in time for Christmas. Honestly, whatever you have to give I know will be GREATLY appreciated. Thank You!
