Rob Simpson fundraiser

Donation protected
Hi, I'm Terri and I created this fundraiser to assist my brother Rob Simpson. On April 2, 2024, his RV caught fire, was completely destroyed, and he lost everything. He had been living in the RV for the last couple years in Oakland CA, and since the fire, is currently living in a tent, sleeping on the ground. There is no insurance. The fire destroyed all his possessions, his clothes, his wallet, his phone, and food supply. He escaped with the clothing he was wearing (and no shoes) and nothing else, and suffered burns on his hands. He's on a waiting list for a social worker to be assigned from the Red Cross but his not having a physical mailing address while living in the RV is complicating any attempts at getting assistance.
Any amount, even $5 for a meal, is greatly appreciated.
UPDATE: Thank you all those that donated!!! It is literally life saving.

Sadly, the Red Cross representative said on 4/22 that they cannot help him without an ID (even though it perished in the fire) or proof of residence.
