Ryan Didi and Hunter lost everything in a fire

Hi everyone, my name is Lauren Palma. I'm reaching out to help my dear friends, Ryan, Didi, their son Hunter, and Didi's mother, who tragically lost everything in a fire on Wednesday, March 27th, at 3:30 am. An electrical fire ripped through their home while they were thankfully visiting family in Utah. Didi's mother, however, was home and bravely escaped the flames by jumping from a window.

Everything they owned was destroyed – cherished photos, irreplaceable documents, clothes, Hunter's toys, Ryan and Didi's music equipment – all gone. Only a few items in the garage were salvageable, thanks to firefighters battling the blaze.

This was their first home, a dream they'd saved for years to achieve. They were finally building a life together, and now, it's vanished in an instant.

I've known Ryan since we were teenagers, playing music with him for over a decade. Didi is a fucking saint and one of the hardest working in the game. Their son Hunter is only six. They are both prominent members of the DIY music community and I know asking for help is incredibly difficult for them, but they are understandably devastated.

We're reaching out for your support as they navigate this unimaginable situation. They're working with the Red Cross and insurance companies, but they have nothing left – no clothes, no essentials, and a long road to rebuilding ahead.

Any contribution you can make, big or small, will be a tremendous help. Sharing this campaign is also a huge favor. Thank you for your compassion and generosity.
