Santa Rosa Eritreans Fire Relief

Donation protected








The fire that erupted late Saturday night has devastated the Santa Rosa community. So far, about 15 people are reported to have died as a result of this raging fire. People's homes, cars and businesses have been destroyed. My name is Sawait Hezchias-Seyoum and I have created this page as an effort to raise money to support our fellow Eritrean brothers and sisters who have lost their homes and are currently displaced. I am Eritrean and a native of Santa Rosa. My sister Tseheinesh and her husband Yohannes are among the Eritrean families who have lost their homes. We lived alongside the other families in Santa Rosa since immigrating to the U.S. in the 80's. All funds will be divided up equally between those families who have lost their homes. A little goes along way.  Please give what you can. Anything helps. Thank you for your prayers and your support during this difficult time.

The families effected (that we are aware of):
Tseggai, Semainesh and family 
Yohannes, Tseheinesh and family
Tekeste Abraha and family
Saba Yimam and family
Tigisti, Fessahaie and family
Huria and family
Mesfun, Azeb and family 
Michael, Nistihti and family

If you would like to donate any items to the families please contact Tesfaselassie at (707) [phone redacted].

Shelter:
Fully furnished mobile homes available in Vallejo for anyone displaced. Call Bernice at 7076409555.
