Support Chris, Erin, Halsey, Ford, and Mary's New Start

My brother Chris and sister-in-law Erin recently lost their home in the Palisades Fire. Most importantly, they were able to evacuate their children, Halsey, Ford, and Mary, to safety well before the fire overwhelmed the kids' nearby school and eventually the entire neighborhood. The white picket fence and enormous tree, both in the backdrop of countless family photos, are the only things left of their home; everything inside is lost.

Their family now faces the prospect of recovering and re-establishing their lives. If you know Erin and Chris, you know they are two of the hardest working people in their respective businesses and the most dedicated, present parents to their children; they are also two of the most generous, sharing family members and friends a person could ask for. This is why Chris and Erin will donate half of the proceeds from the fundraiser to help other recovery relief efforts.

My name is Jaime Cechin, and I live in Mendocino County. I've created this fundraiser for my brother Chris and his family because he has been there to care for us (his brother, mother, and sister) since he was three years old. He has always worked so hard to bring those around him comfort and happiness. It is my hope that those of us who love and cherish them can now bring similar comfort and happiness to Chris, Erin, Halsey, Ford, and Mary, and help them to start over. These funds will assist with needs that might not be fully covered by other sources of aid
