Ryan and Maranda Kraus Fire rebuilding Fund

Hi, I'm Katrina Kraus Skinfill. My brother Ryan Kraus and his wife Maranda owned their dream property in Elk Washington for 20-plus years. They have been slowly building onto the small trailer that was on their property little by little, so they could stay out of debt and own the home they love, on the land & in the community that they love. Then Friday when the fire was headed their way, they stayed as long as possible and did all they could to try to save their home until they had to get out of there as fast as they could. They grabbed their dog and headed to safety. Not long after arriving to safety, they were devastated to realize that after all they did, their home couldn't be saved along with their vehicles and everything else they owned. They continue to serve their neighbors battling the fire and donating what food was not burned from their garden to help the rest of the community that is hurting. When everything settles down and the danger is passed they will need a hand to be able to rebuild their lives. They will need everything from basics for living while they are displaced & until they can rebuild their home and everything they will need inside it. This is why I am asking for your help. If you can help in any way, it would be a huge blessing to them! Thank you so much!
