HottyToddy.com would like to remind the community that a GoFundMe account page (GoFundMe/Chambers) has been set up to help the Chambers family offset expenses associated with funeral, temporary living, cancer treatments, general living and rebuilding costs. A nice portion of the initial monetary goal has been raised over the past week, but the Chambers’ needs are great and they still have a great deal of rebuilding to do.

For those who would like to help, visit GoFundMe/Chambers where you can donate any amount. All gifts are greatly needed (and appreciated) during this traumatic time in the Chambers family’s life.
