Help Paula Recover After Wildfire in Altadena

Donation protected
My name is Lisa Gibbs, and I am raising funds for Paula Kimberling. Paula and I are friends who worked together for many years, and I know she would not ask anyone for help, but she would be the first to help someone who is truly in need.

Paula lost her house in the Eaton Canyon Fire, which burned through Altadena on January 7, 2025, where she lived for 47 years. Paula was only able to gather all of her important documents before evacuating. She lost everything else in the fire. The only thing left standing is the fireplace. To view the photos, please see Updates Section below.

Three of her sisters and a nephew also lost their homes to the fire that same night.

The money will be used 100% for:
  • Clothing, Food, and Personal items
  • Costs associated with Lodging
  • Costs associated with Recovery
We recognize that this is a difficult time for so many, who have lost so much. We ask for your kindness and generosity so that Paula may begin rebuilding her life.
Any contribution, large or small will make a huge difference in her recovery effort and will be sincerely appreciated.

Thank You from the bottom of our hearts, for any support you can offer, whether through a donation, sharing this message, or sending words of encouragement.
