On the afternoon of Sunday, February 21, 2021, Charles and Vanessa went out to get ice cream with their daughter Sofia. While they were away a fire erupted in their kitchen. Neighbors heard the alarms and broke the sliding door to save the family dog, Zoey, and call 911. The Orange County Fire Authority quickly arrived and extinguished the fire, preventing it from spreading to neighboring homes.

Thankfully, everyone is safe and there were no injuries, however, the Eldridge's home was badly damaged. The first floor of their home is completely destroyed and initial estimates gauge they will be unable to move back in for at least six months.

Please help the Eldridge family by contributing to this fire relief fund. These funds are to assist the Eldridges with food, clothing, supplies, and housing while they are displaced.
