Help Ricardo & Maria's Family Rebuild After Fire

Donation protected
Ricardo and Maria, both 74 years old, have lived in their home on Ricardo St since 1988, building a life filled with memories, family gatherings, and cherished moments. Living with them are their three sons: Jorge, who has worked at Dodger Stadium for the past 20 years; Ricardo Jr., who works at Best Buy; and Juan Carlos, who lovingly takes care of both parents. Today, their world was turned upside down when a fire destroyed their house, taking with it not only their belongings and clothing, but also irreplaceable photos and keepsakes collected over decades.

The fire also destroyed Jorge's dialysis machine, which was connected in his room and is essential for his health. As the family begins the difficult process of working with insurance to replace their home, they are faced with the immediate need for essentials—clothing, personal items, and a safe place to stay. The loss is overwhelming, and the emotional toll of seeing a lifetime of memories reduced to ashes is something no family should have to endure alone.

Any support from the community would mean so much to Ricardo, Maria, and their sons as they try to recover and rebuild. Your kindness will help them replace what was lost, support Jorge's medical needs, and give them hope as they start this new chapter. Thank you for standing with them during this incredibly tough time.
