Help the Branch Family Recover from Palisades Fire

Help the Branch Family Rebuild After Devastating Pacific Palisades Fire Detroyed Home and Belongings

As a dear friend of the eldest daughter, I have gotten to know the Branch family over the past few years and I have always said that the Branch family home would be the place to go if there was ever a zombie apocalypse. Little did I know that, overnight, this beloved home—where the fruit trees provide for everyone in the neighborhood, where puzzles are always spread across the dining room table, and where memories were made by Molly, Peter, Peyton, Teagan, Carter, snuggly cats Cosmo and Angus goofy dog, Bowie, and hermit crab Hermie—would be reduced to ashes.

Meet the Branch Family:

Molly Branch has deep roots in Los Angeles. She is the Dean of Education at Windward High School. For years, she has devoted herself to helping students find their passion and guiding them toward a bright future. Her commitment to education and her love for her children, Peyton, Teegan, and Carter, is unmatched.

Her husband, Peter, is the type of person the community can count on when disaster strikes. With a passion for cooking for his children, he has spent countless hours cooking in his kitchen that has now been completely destroyed in the fire.

The oldest of the three children, Peyton is a loyal, hardworking college senior studying interdisciplinary studies. She dreams of becoming a lawyer and can always be counted on to brighten her friends days.

A freshman in college, Teagan recently left home over winter break, not knowing she would never be able to return to the house she calls home.

Fifteen year old Carter, the youngest of the Branch family, is a passionate baseball fan. If you would have walked into his room just a few days ago, you would have seen Dodger memorabilia, posters, and countless cherished items plastered around the room. Now, all of that is gone.

What the Funds Will Be Used For:

The money donated would be going to the Branch family to help them recover. 

How You Can Help:

1. Donate: Anything helps to support the Branch family.

3. Stay Informed: This natural disaster will not only have immediate effects but also long-term ones! Staying informed and engaged can help ensure ongoing support for the Branch family as they navigate the road to recovery.

Thank you for your generosity, kindness, and compassion.

Gratefully,

Riley
