On the night of December 29, 2014, Laurie and Billy's Crazy View Farm house was lost to an accidental fire. Despite the heroic efforts of firefighters who fought through the night, the farm house and all of its contents were a complete loss.Thankfully, nobody was injured in the fire, but insurance will not cover all of the costs. As anyone who has been lucky enough to have been a guest of Crazy View knows, no amount of money can cover the senitmental value of this home.The goal of this fundraiser is to raise money to help replace lost items and defray rebuilding costs. The goal amount may change as more information from insurance comes through. Laurie has requested that once a firm goal is established, any extra funds raised be donated to charity.We will be posting regular updates about in-person fundraising events in Montana and possibly New England. Many people have expressed interest in helping rebuild and donating materials and replacement house furnishings. These donations are extrememly important and appreciated, and updates will come about how/when to go through this process. At this point, it is not certain whether a rebuild is feasible, in which case funds would be put toward moving costs. All donations go directly to the gofundme account, which Laurie and Billy will be able to withdraw from.Laurie and Billy have been generous enough to open their home to countless WWOOFers, travelers and friends. It is time to repay the favor for some of the most selfless people I know. Please share this page with anyone with a connection to Laurie, Billy or Crazy View.
