<div>Ajah and her soon to be 15 year old son, Gabriel, are dear friends of our family who sadly had their home - burn down during the horrible Palisades fire this week. Thankfully they are healthy and safe, but are very much in need of the support of the community and loved ones. We're starting this GoFundMe campaign to do exactly that.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your kind donation will go towards the following (and more):
</div>
<ul>
<li>Temporary shelter for Ajah and Gabriel as they recover
</li>
<li>Essential needs, and other necessities
</li>
<li>Finding a new permanent home or rebuilding the one they lost and much more towards this effort
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In the words of Gabriel:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>"My name is Gabriel, and I’m almost 15 years old. This week, I lost my home in the Palisades Fire – the house where my mom and I lived for years, filled with so many beautiful memories. I used to come home after school, lay on my favorite couch in the living room, and daydream. My mom and I loved exploring the trails and forests nearby, finding tadpoles, squirrels, and even mountain lions. But now, our house is gone – completely burned to the ground.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It’s hard to feel secure when everything is gone. My mom and I hope to rebuild or find a new home where we can create new memories together. We are so grateful for any support, big or small, as we work to rebuild the life we loved. Thank you for helping us find hope in this difficult time."
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Let’s come together as a community to show Ajah and Gabriel they are not alone. Every donation, share, and message of encouragement brings them closer to finding a new home and rebuilding their lives. Thank you for your kindness and generosity.
