Loss of home in Gardiner, MT after major flood
Donation protected
Hi all, I am fundraising for the folks who lost their home today to the Yellowstone River. Five local families and individuals lived in this building and lost everything. Unfortunately, they had very little time to collect their possessions, some just being able to grab the absolute essentials. I'm hoping we can replace some of the personal items that were lost in the flood. Donations will be given directly from the beneficiary, a local non-profit, to the families so they may begin to restore their lives. Thank you so much for your support!

"This was my home and my passion and this picture shows my driftwood arch and bar floating towards oblivion. I have always seen this kind of thing happening on the news or whatever to someone else and today I found out exactly how it feels and I understand now that it is truly overwhelming and exhausting. I have experienced today the absolute best and worst of humanity. The concern , support and generosity from complete strangers , friends and family is absolutely amazing to me. Thank you all."
