Help Clatrina & Her Family Recover After The Eaton Fires

I'm devastated to share that my best friend, Clatrina, a dedicated and caring teacher for Pasadena Unified School District (PUSD) and a loving mother of two beautiful children, has lost her family home. I have had the pleasure of knowing Clatrina and her family for 30 years. I have had the pleasure of being there when her children were born.

Clatrina and her two children, one of whom is a child with special needs, will need to start their lives over, due to the destruction of the Eaton Fires.

I've seen Clatrina tirelessly advocate and provide for both of her children. Their family home, one that has been in the family for over 50 years, has held generations of memories and served as a sanctuary for her loved ones.

Despite facing this unimaginable loss, she continues to be the pillar of strength for her family. She is an intelligent, honest, hardworking, dependable, and loving woman. She is very fortunate to have the support of her partner, mother, and uncles. The road ahead will be a challenging one. I am asking, on her behalf, for support and assistance.

Every donation, big or small, every share of this post, will help to rebuild their lives- money for materials, clothing for her children, and securing housing during this uncertain time. Please, let's rally together as a community to show her family that they are not alone in this healing and rebuilding. Thank you in advance for your contribution! -Shannon
