My name is Spark O’Connell and I’m reaching out on behalf of my close friend and "brother from another mother," Chris, his wife Bridgette, and their sweet 8-year-old daughter, Cecily. I’ve known Chris for over 21 years, and in that time, he has always been a devoted husband, father, and friend. Today, they need our help.

On the morning of January 8, 2025, the unthinkable happened. The Campbell-Wallinger family lost their home in the devastating fires sweeping through Los Angeles. The house they had moved into just two years ago and were lovingly renovating with their own hands is now gone, along with everything they worked so hard to build.

Chris and Bridgette are the epitome of hard-working, loving parents. Bridgette is a dedicated teacher, shaping young minds every day, while Chris balances his passion for acting with freelance installation work to provide for their family. They are the kind of people who always lend a helping hand and put their daughter Cecily’s happiness and well-being above all else.

This family has already endured so much, and now they are faced with the overwhelming challenge of rebuilding their lives from scratch. No one deserves to face such devastation, and that’s where we, their community, can step in to help.

Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference. Even if you’re unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser and sending words of encouragement can help lighten their load and remind them they are not alone in this journey.

Let’s come together to support Chris, Bridgette, and Cecily as they work to rebuild their lives. They’ve given so much love and positivity to those around them, and now it’s our turn to give back.

Thank you for taking the time to read their story and for your kindness and generosity during this difficult time.
