Support Heathers Housing Transition After Wildfire

I’m Heather Crawford and I live in the beautiful Altadena and on January 8th I was evacuated in early morning hours due to the Eaton fire in Altadena. I’m still displaced from my home and until remediation services are done inside the home ( ash and smoke damage) which is through my landlords insurance. I can’t move back into my home with my cats. I’m struggling mentally and most definitely financially. Of course no one predicted this event would be so catastrophic to Altadena and the Pacific Palisades. I’m thankful my home didn’t burn and the fire did get close but by a miracle ours was saved.

As of now I don’t have a timeline on when I can move back home.

All funds will help pay for air bnbs/lodging as I’m in desperate need of help in this area. I have applied to lots of aids from various organizations, yes including fema which is in the appeal process. And haven’t received any help as of today 1/14/25.

Some friends have helped me and stayed with them for a month ( even when she is allergic to cats) one has helped me pay for the place I’m staying at now until the 21st. Beyond grateful but any help would be so very much appreciated! I know so many people lost everything and my heart breaks for my community. This has been extremely hard on me and my furbabies and wishing I could do more but being on a disability income with social security limits my resources.

Definitely feels hopeless and daunting but trying to stay positive!

Thank you all
