Support Kelcy's Family After Devastating Fire

Donation protected
I've never done this before - so bear with me.

My childhood best friend of 29 years, basically my sister - has lost her home last night to the Airport Fire at the top of the Ortega Highway in Lake Elsinore, California. Kelcy, her 4 children, husband, and animals were all able to make it out safely without harm.

They were able to pack up what they could, but unfortunately have very little and will need to start rebuilding their lives and home from the ground up when the time comes and allows. They have 3 days' worth of clothes for each of them, as many of you know - is not much at all.

If you know Kelcy, you know her heart is something rare, and comes in the purest of forms. I've known Kelcy since we were four years old, and Garrett for about 10 years since he came into Kelcy's life. My love for both of them and their babies runs deep, and the news of their loss has my heart sunk.

The strength and resilience Kelcy and Garrett have, is something that I have always been in awe of, and I know they will get through this tragedy with those very characteristics.

My hope is to make the burden a little lighter, and to help with getting them back on their feet into a better situation to get them a more permanent living situation for their babies and animals.

Anything helps and is so appreciated.
