Stand By Gabs and Bryan: Help Revive Caja Madera

Hello, wonderful friends and community members,

Myself Xilia- a regular at Caja Madera- and Brian’s Sister Christy Palilonis (who is handling funds that will all go directly to Caja/Bryan/Gabs) are reaching out to you today on behalf of Gabs and Bryan (also included in the fundraiser), the cherished owners of Caja Madera, our local favorite Mexican restaurant. As many of you may already know, their lives have been significantly impacted by recent severe flooding, resulting in extensive damage to both their home and the much-loved Caja Madera. All funds will help support fixing the flooding damage at Caja Madera as well as provide money for housing while they work to rebuild where there home was.

Gabs and Bryan have always been pillars in our community, generously giving back at every turn. Now, during this challenging time, it's our opportunity to show them the same love and support they have consistently shown to us all.

While insurance and government aid will eventually come through, these processes can be lengthy. Meanwhile, Gabs and Bryan, their kid and pets are all without housing and the prospects of their home being salvageable are low.

The funds raised through this campaign will provide immediate help for their most pressing needs. These funds will support Gabs and Bryan in securing temporary housing, replacing essential personal belongings, and allow space and time to bring back Caja Madera, a place that we all cherish.

We live in a world where we can't help everyone, but we can definitely make a significant impact in the lives of those close to us. By rallying for Gabs and Bryan, we can show them the same warmth they've shared with our community.

Let's stand by them, the way they have always stood by us. Every contribution, no matter how small, will bring them one step closer to recovery. Let's work together to help them overcome this challenging period, and help revive their home, Caja Madera, and their spirits.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and commitment to our community.
