Help My Cousin Haley After Pacific Palisades Fire

Hi! My name is Natalie Steinberg, and I’m hoping to raise funds to help my cousin Haley. Like so many families, my aunt Lonnie and cousin Haley lost their home last week in the Pacific Palisades fire. My aunt Lonnie’s home had been in her family for 41 years, where my four cousins all grew up. My aunt, cousin, and their dogs were able to safely evacuate but lost their home and nearly everything inside it.

I recognize that my aunt is incredibly lucky to have insurance that will help to cover her living costs and replacement expenses, and that so many others are not so fortunate.

My cousin Haley was living with my aunt at the time of the fire, so she too has lost all of her possessions. Haley is a daycare teacher and is already back at work to give the children she works with a sense of stability and normalcy, which is crucial right now. She has temporary housing with my aunt, but anything that would help her to independently rebuild her own life—from clothes and essentials like towels and bedding to her favorite craft supplies for her classroom and her own hobbies—would be so greatly appreciated.

We know that so many have lost so much and every little bit helps. If you are looking for other ways to help, please consider donating to a GoFundMe for any family without fire insurance coverage.

From my family, we thank you greatly!
