1% FTP Member Loses Everything in Idaho Wildfire

Our hearts go out to 1% for the Planet member Morningstar Lanyards. Last week wildfires ravaged much of the Western US, destroying hundreds of homes and businesses. Lynda MacButch, owner of Morningstar Lanyards in Pocatello, Idaho, lost her home and her entire business to the fires, but is thankful that nobody was injured.
“The only thing left of my home is the chimney, I lost all of my lanyard inventory and my raw materials. Of course we have home owners insurance, but I didn’t have business insurance,” Lynda told us by email. “I am in the process of ordering manufacturing materials and will get my assemblers working ASAP. I hope my customers will be patient and stay loyal, until I can get back on my feet.”
Morningstar Lanyards is a contributor to Trout Unlimited through 1% for the Planet.
