Support Our Family’s Recovery From Altadena Fire

I am deeply sorry to share that my boyfriend Michael and his family, including his disabled mother Tina, Aunt Angela, Uncle Mario, and cousin Barbara have lost everything, but the clothes on their backs in the recent Altadena fire. This tragedy has left each one of them without their cherished possessions, cars, homes, and the house that has been a family cornerstone for generations. Michael’s grandfather, who overcame early educational barriers to become a successful logistics engineer and a dedicated activist within the NAACP and the Altadena town council, established this home. The sentimental value of this place, each one of their homes and everything in it is immeasurable to them.

In this challenging time, any support or donation from the community would be immensely appreciated as we navigate through a multitude of losses. Your kindness and generosity can make a significant difference in helping all of us address the many aspects of recovery and support needed throughout this crisis. Thank you, and we offer our condolences to anyone who may be going through the same situation. If there's anything we can do to help, please reach out.
