Hi Julia, I am so sorry for you loss. I lost everything too. I am thrilled by this webpage and the benefit you are planning. I was an event planner for 3 years so please let me know if I can be of assistance. However, I will be joining my family for the holidays. I had insurance, but it is tough because I just moved here and I felt all alone until this page. No one at my owrk was effected, etc., and it was hard to talk to them about it. There was just no support. do you know any additional resources, my insurance doesn't cover everything, and I am under insured. Thanks!
Yes, I found where o apply and so I filled out an application online yesterday and already today someone called and we met at my house.

You can contact Gail Hansen at Soho gail@sohosb.com and she likely has contacts galore and is the kind of person to help out and brainstorm with.
I don't know of any computers available, but family can use the internet at the SB Public Library and branches as well as the UCSB library. You can also post on craigslist for wanted items:
