Dear Friends & Family,

I’m reaching out today with a heavy heart to share the news that my dear friend and colleague, Mildred, has lost her home in the recent wildfires in Pasadena. Thankfully, she is safe, but the emotional and financial toll of losing her home and everything in it is overwhelming.

Mildred is one of the kindest, most selfless people I know. As a Design Director, she is not only incredibly talented but also endlessly supportive. She’s always the first to lend a hand, offer guidance, or go the extra mile to help others. Mildred does it all with grace and a smile, never asking for anything in return. She’s the kind of person who lifts everyone around her.

Because of the person she is, I know Mildred would never ask for help. She would never want to burden anyone, even in the face of something as devastating as this. But I can’t sit back and watch her face this challenge alone. That’s why I’ve decided to set up this GoFundMe—to try and bring some light into what has to be an incredibly hard time for her.

Your contributions will go directly toward helping Mildred rebuild her life—whether it’s finding a new place to live, replacing lost belongings, or simply helping her regain some stability. No amount is too small, and every little bit will go a long way in making things a little brighter for her.

Please consider donating, and if you can’t, simply sharing this with others would mean the world.

Thank you so much for your support. It truly means everything.

Nicole
