Michael’s parents were tragically killed in June of this year by their neighbor, who then burned their house to the ground. Michael and his sister are trying to create a “Phoenix from the ashes” by raising funds to rebuild and expand the Myrtle Point Library, a place that their parents visited often, and had donated to in the past.
Find out more info about Michael’s parents and the fund drive on the Lola and Renae Cottam Rebuild a Library Facebook page. If you’d like to donate in addition to buying a ticket you can do so on the ticket form below. If you can’t attend but want to donate, you can also do this below.

Great sounding event! Definitely interesting. Aside from the fact that it’s going be spearheaded by Moz founder Rady Fishkin, they’re also going to be very generous by donating ALL the profits to the Cottam Library Fund. Reminds me of the heartwarming response of the tragedy.
Wishing this event all the best!
