On December 29, 2025, our family’s world was turned upside down when the home my mom (Michelle Gutierrez) my step dad's (Danny Gutierrez) and my sister's home they lived in on S. Hilda Street in Anaheim was destroyed in a sudden and devastating fire. The fire spread rapidly, causing explosions in the garage that completely totaled two vehicles and left the house a total loss.
Tragically, one of the family dogs did not survive the fire. The loss of their home, their vehicles, and a beloved pet has been absolutely heartbreaking.
Everyone made it out safely, but they escaped with little to nothing. In a matter of minutes, they lost their home, personal belongings, clothing, furniture, and irreplaceable memories. Right now, they are facing the overwhelming reality of finding temporary housing, replacing basic necessities, and figuring out next steps with insurance and recovery.
We are starting this GoFundMe to help my mom and our family cover immediate expenses such as housing, food, clothing, transportation, and other urgent needs while they begin the long process of rebuilding their lives.
Any donation—no matter the amount—means more than we can put into words. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser is just as appreciated. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your love, prayers, and support during this incredibly difficult time.
