Fundraiser by Lorie Barnes : Help Restore Center for Spiritual Living After Being Flooded
On the evening of Sunday, December 21, 2025, Center for Spiritual Living, Redding (CSLR), located at 1905 Hartnell Avenue in Redding, California, was flooded due to long-lasting torrential rain that also caused complete flooding of the adjacent apartment complex, other flooding along Hartnell Avenue, and overflow of Churn Creek next to CSLR. The extensive interior flood was a category 3, which is toxic water and required removal of approximately 5,200 square feet of carpet and baseboards in the sanctuary, administrative office area, and bookstore. In addition, a significant number of bookcases and cabinets on the floor were damaged which require replacement. Also, the floors and walls require special treatment by a remediation company to avoid mold and other contaminants due to the toxic flood water. CSLR also received significant damage to fencing and landscape area grounds which require repair. The overall estimated cost of repair, mitigation, and replacement is approximately $84,000.
CSLR is requiring a GoFundMe target of $60,000 since the flood insurance cap with its insurance company is limited and not high enough to cover the extent of damage.
Those who prefer to make a tax-deductible donation can do so by sending a check to CSLR at P. O. Box 493700, Redding CA 96049-3700 and designating "CSLR Flood Restoration” on the memo line. You can also do a general donation via the CSLR website at https://www.cslredding.org.
