Alexandra and Jon Sortino including her Mom

April recently faced an unimaginable tragedy when their home in Altadena was destroyed by a devastating fire. In a matter of hours, everything they had worked so hard for—cherished possessions, irreplaceable memories, and the sense of safety that home provides—was reduced to ashes. The Sortino family lost not only their house but also a lifetime of mementos that reflected years of love, laughter, and hard work.

Despite the overwhelming loss, Alex and Jon have shown incredible resilience. They are leaning on the strength of their community and the hope that together, we can help them rebuild their lives. While no material possessions can replace the memories they’ve lost, our collective support can give them a fresh start.

This tragedy is a reminder of how quickly life can change and how essential it is for communities to come together during times of crisis. Every donation, large or small, will help Alex and Jon cover basic needs, find temporary shelter, and begin the long process of rebuilding. With kindness and generosity, we can help the Sortino family rise from the ashes and restore a sense of hope after this heartbreaking loss.

We love them and appreciate your help
