I just got off the phone with LIZA TRAINER from StickToWhatYouKnow.com
She is in dire need of help from this community.
Her studio, which is her home, was destroyed by a tornado caused by hurricane Wilma. :no:
She was in there when the tornado hit. She had three pets, George the dog, Chicken the parakeet, and RatsAroni the rat. Chicken was killed. RatsAroni was saved and I didn't get any info on George because the phone kept cutting out.
All the windows are broken on her X-Terra. The power is still out and gas is in VERY short supply.
Liza works at an executive airport which was pretty much destroyed as well. The hangers were ripped up like an aluminum can. She doesn't have a job and she's homeless.
Every night she goes back to her studio to defend what's left from the looters. There is some salvagable equipment there but she can't put it in her car and take it anywhere because there's no gas, no money, and nowhere to go. :no:
They were able to take pics of all of this and they should be put online tonight.
She asked me to call out to the fellow filmmakers in the community and ask for help.
Liza is an amazing person and is willing to make props or help out anyone at any time. Now she needs our help!
She is asking for whatever money you can spare. They are setting up a paypal account with a button to donate money to. :yes:
If you can help at all, I pray on your compassion and ask that you give to an extraordinary person and fellow filmmaker.

While I've been unemployed for a long time and I'm not in a position to donate, I do encourage all of you if you can spare anything at all, to help her out. Liza is a great person and a great member of the community. So if anyone can help, please do so. _________________ Duane L.

Wow, that is really sad to hear. I was hit by Katrina a while back, went without power for two weeks and things still aren't back to normal. Don't know when we'll get cable television back even. Hurricanes... well, they suck Wish her all the best, and hope she and those also in her situation can pull themselves up and make things better - as well as make some great cinema. _________________ Josh Samford
