LSP_Kevin Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Howdy folks, Most of us will by now be aware that Paul Fisher lost his home and livelihood in the recent California fires. Thankfully Paul and his family are safe, but he now needs our support, and to that end I've set up a GoFundMe campaign to provide him with whatever financial assistance we can muster. Please click on the link below to help out: https://www.gofundme.com/paul-fisher-fire-relief Hopefully this will help Paul get back on his feet again, and get some more of his wonderful products out to the modelling community.

r0t0rdr1ver Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Dang, I’m so sorry to hear about this. So many have lost so much due to these fires. My prayers are with Paul, his family and all those affected by the California wildfires. Thanks for setting this up Kevin, I’ve given what I can for now...unemployed at the moment.

There are no obligations here, and all help of any sort will be gratefully accepted by Paul, I'm sure. Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Dan Have you ever noticed that pinned threads tend to disappear from view? And you forget they're even there? Yeah, me too. I might convert it into an announcement at some stage, however.

LSP_Kevin Posted November 12, 2018 Author Share Posted November 12, 2018 Thanks to everyone who has so generously donated so far! We're well over the US$2000 mark now, and well on the way to our initial goal of US$10k. Kev Out2gtcha and Daniel460 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the rate it's going, we'll make our initial US$10k goal within the first 24 hours! I'm not sure if I'll reset the goal after that, but I do intend to keep the campaign going for as long as required, or until donations dry up.

LSP_Matt Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 It's a big community Kev, so hopefully we'll crack over the 10K. With Pauls mum needing additional support it's going to be tough. Hopefully people in the medical world in the US can network for him to make sure his mum gets looked after. $6643 now.

Padraic Conway Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 This kind of misfortune can ( and does) happen to anyone. Great to see that there are big hearts and kind souls on this board and around the modelling world. Padraic LSP_Kevin, Iain and LSP_Matt 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
