About this fundraiser

Saucee & Strux have spent years transforming a house into a home for their 2 young children & the many animals they care greatly for.

Beginning the early evening hours of March 10, 2026 & into the morning hours of March 11, 2026, a series of several intense supercell thunderstorms made their way across several counties in Illinois. Colossal size hail & tornadoes, including an EF-3, an EF-1 & a multitude of other small tornado formations caused widespread damage & destruction to thousands of homes & businesses, including theirs.

As you all may know, they were out of state on vacation on the days of these events. Although we're all truly thankful that they were safe in the midst of all of this…Anyone that's ever experienced a natural disaster this severe knows that, the aftermath can be extremely trying & difficult to recover from.

This is an opportunity for all of us to come together as a community. I know that we all have our own responsibilities. So, any contribution you can make will be deeply appreciated & can make a significant impact in their recovery journey.

Together, we can send a powerful message of solidarity. Together, we can help provide them with hope & the means to restore their lives.
