Kahlil Somauroo and his family, stood by the remains of their home.

Kahlil Somauroo read Jurisprudence at the House from 1998-2001. His family home was destroyed in the Marshall fire in Colorado on January 30th. He would like the help of Members and Friends:

"We had less than an hour between seeing the smoke and having to flee. It's going to take us a while to get back on our feet. Our immediate needs have been met, we have temporary accommodation. A lot of people have reached out and asked how they can help, so we set up a GoFundMe. If you are able to contribute or share the link, my family would really appreciate the support."
