One Day Left To Raise Money Against Neighbors’ Foreclosure

Friends and neighbors of Pine Street residents Rain and Summer have created a fund raising campaign to keep them in their home.

From the Indiegogo page:

That’s why we’re here. When we, Rain and Summer’s friends, heard about the crisis we decided that we couldn’t let these amazing people be forced out of their home and out of our lives, we couldn’t let ANOTHER family fall victim to the banks, we couldn’t let Summer wonder where to put her 300+ stuffed animal best friends. They’re too important to us and to our community.

When the discussion first came up, the reactions were so strong that there was serious talk of civil disobedience actions; many of us were willing to go to jail trying to save Rain and Summer’s home. When it got down to straight tactics, however, it was eventually decided that our best chance, as short a time we have and as desperate as we are, is to raise $15,000. $13,000 will go to pay the mortgage holder, and $2,000 to cover the taxes and legal fees that will arise from this campaign.

The auction is on Thursday (8/2), so it’s going to be cutting it close, and we know this is a long shot, but we’re the best chance they have. We’ve all been working non-stop for days, and we won’t rest until the Burroughs home is saved. Please help us help Summer, Please help us help Rain, please help us help Rain and Summer help our community.
