Dear friends, family, and strangers...

Moments after returning from a holiday trip with his family, our composer and dear friend Ed Dunne was evacuated from his Palisades home. Not knowing it would be the last time they would step foot in their house, Ed, Anne-Marie, Milo, and Finn grabbed only their beloved dog Ozzie, a laptop, and some overnight bags. Just hours later they became one of the many families who lost everything in the Palisades fire.

They're safe, but permanently displaced while they navigate the devastating aftermath of losing their entire community and everything they own - including Ed's extensive collection of musical instruments. Unfortunately his home recording studio, built during the pandemic in 2020, will not be covered by insurance.

I've been lucky to know Ed for nearly a decade, and he's one of the hardest working people I've ever met. Like many, his home was a source of pride from all his years of hard work and dedication to music in the advertising community.

Anything you're able to give to support their family through this crisis is greatly appreciated. Your help will go towards any unmet needs not fully covered by insurance and disaster relief aid.
