My sister Suzy has been displaced by the Eaton Canyon fire - while she has been unable to get back to her home, it is believed that her home is still standing - one of a small few in the heavily decimated area of North Lake Ave. While so incredibly fortunate, Suzy has a long and costly uphill battle and she currently does not know if or when she will be allowed back into her house or what damage awaits her there. She adores the beautiful city of Altadena and the incredible community she has found there. Altadena is a special place, a haven, a tight knit community and giving back to this community has always been an important part of Suzy’s story. Restoring and honoring the tradition and history of her 1917 home was and will remain the focal point in rebuilding her life here. Those of you that know Suzy, know how incredibly kind, compassionate and helpful she is, she will quite literally do anything for her loved ones and I would like to show her the same support and love in return. In the past few days, when asked how we can help her, she has only asked for help for her friends and neighbors many of whom have lost everything, selflessly forgetting that she also needs help and support. Suzy is a psychiatric nurse practitioner and having the ability to focus on the wellbeing of her patients is her number one priority.

Your contributions will help her through challenging times getting back on her feet whilst in the middle of a decimated neighborhood. Love and appreciate you all!
