Help Alida After the Palisades Fire

My name is Alysia, from Los Angeles. I'm a friend of Alida and have worked alongside her for 3+ years. I'm setting this fund up on her behalf to help cover her short-term needs during this time while she's displaced, to get her back on her feet and find a new place to live.

The day after her birthday, Alida left home to go to work like any other Tuesday, not realizing she would never get to go back, even to pack a small bag. Our friend and colleague Alida needs our help after losing her apartment and everything she had to the fire in the Pacific Palisades last week.

Alida is one of the sweetest souls-- if you've met her, you can attest to it. As an only-child with parents based abroad in Taiwan, it's time for her extended family (us) to rally around and support her through this time as she begins moving forward.

Thank you so much for considering Alida in this truly unprecedented time.
