Just an idea... I have no time to set up something, nor the insight. But hopefully some can..

@alexwalker, thanks for trying to set this up. I will be glad to contribute if someone can take it on. Meantime, let's focus on positive energy and discovery of where the blinking money is!

I have set up a GoFundMe page, but I am concerned about a few things.
1- I have set it up on behalf of the community in this forum, hope this is ok with every one.
2- Will Fecepa hang around long enough to receive the donations?
3- I emailed fecepa at 8:30 am Los Angeles time, and asked for more info, he/she has not responded yet.
4- Will this open up an opportunity for individuals to fake emergencies on the Camino?
5- Will this be ok with the moderator?
6- This is my first GoFundMe attempt and still don't know how this campaign will wrap up and how long it would take, so please be friendly.
Please chime in.

I am willing to donate, but I appreciate your concerns. I think we need to talk to Fecapa, see how/she is doing.

Surely, if anyone has the misfortune to suffer such a monetary loss on the Camino he/she will be able to call on family and/or friends to help out? In extreme cases I expect that one's country's embassy in Madrid will be able to assist.
