OMG -

 

Rat,

I believe you have my email address. 

What can I do to help you - maybe collect things for you in the Albany/Schenectady area?

Anything else? 

 

I do have an extra bedroom, which I have offered to put people up in, in the past for events, etc.  If it's needed, know it is available.  (I do have a dog - if allergies are a concern).

Subject: [concordsnow] Some SCA folks need some help

If you were at court at Northern Region War, you saw Emma and Talorc get their AoAs.

Last night, their apartment building burned down.

They have asked for our help.

They are in a hotel right now, and have a place to live thanks to some friends.

They lost everything.

Here's some info:

I am proud to say that my protege, lady Ratburc Castus is leading the way in helping Emma and Talorc.

Here's her latest note:

Hey everyone.

Emma and Talorc will have a place to stay.  Although of course I'd have let them camp out in my yard, I pretty much suspected when I said yes to that, that by the end of the day a better plan would be in place for them.  The Red Cross is putting them up for several days, and after that they have an offer of a small (but not burnt up!) place to stay until they get on their feet in a new place of their own.

I know that they will eventually have a need for all household items - kitchen items, shelves, beds, dressers, tables, etc.  Probably the most helpful thing would be money.  It is surprising how fast small gifts add up.  As has been posted, I am willing to be a direction point for gift cards to stores/visa cash cards.  Also, anyone wanting to drop off actual stuff can drop it on my front porch during the day and I will get things to them.  I can be reached at jenphalian "at" gmail "dot" com for my address, etc.

In addition to that, I have set up a paypal account using the email address EmmaAndTalorc "at" gmail dot com.  Anyone who wishes to use paypal to send a gift can certainly do so.

These details can be reposted as needs be.

Glad to be a SCAdian in times like these,
Rat

Also, Jared's been doing a lot of work, and he's got this:

As for clothing sizes Allen is size 32/32 for pants and large shirts, Brian is 36,/32 pants xl shirt, Josh is 36/32 pants and xl shirt , Lisa is 36/32 pants xl shirt, Vance, who also lost a good deal of his stuff,  is 36/32 pants also xl shirt. If you need clothing picked up I can do that after three or on the weekend just give me a day and a time.

I can provide his contact information, and I will shuttle stuff, too.

I love you guys.
