<div>Dear friends, family, and community,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are the Stamos family—Connie, Alex, and Chris. Like many others, we lost our Altadena home in the Eaton Fire. Thankfully, we evacuated safely, but the loss of our home and cherished possessions is devastating.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The overflowing love and support we’ve received from our friends, family, and community during this difficult time has been truly heartwarming, and we are deeply grateful for it. Having lived in Altadena for nearly 25 years, this community means everything to us. Now, as we focus on rebuilding, any support will help fund temporary housing and replace essential items lost. We cannot thank you enough for helping us take the next steps toward rebuilding our home and our lives.
</div>

Support the Stamos family: Recovering from the Eaton Fire

<div>My name is Letica Caraballo (Pimentel)

</div>

<div>On friday December 20, 2024 my baby was taken from us. She was only 17 about to have her 18th birthday on January 7th. She had such a great future a head of her. She had a heart of gold. She was my perfect gorgeous Angel baby. I don't even have the words to say. I can't even cope. I need her. Our family is devastated. We appreciate all the support and love. Thank you all.

#JusticeForAngel In Honor of our Angelina (Angel) Gonzales

<div><strong>Matthew Hammond </strong>and <strong>Davya Flaharty</strong> of Love Only Grows Music Ministry have officially released their Christmas album <em>The Dawn of Love </em>in time for the Holiday season!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now they are on tour in St. Louis -- releasing the album with a special concert in the place where they recorded <em>The Dawn of Love </em>with studio maestro Peter Stevens. From there, they head back to Matthew's home territory of Austin and San Antonio (December 13 - 19), and then Denver and Boulder where Matthew's family (wife Liz and their 3 children) and Davya's family (husband Tyson and their 2 children) will join them for a series of concerts culminating in a filmed concert in Littleton, CO. For more concert details and to hear and order their Christmas album, go to <a href="https://www.loveonlygrows.org" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>www.LoveOnlyGrows.org</strong></a><strong> </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This is where you come in, dear supporter<em>. </em>We need your help to cover the costs of the film crew and audio and travel costs so that our families can experience this concert live and in person and sing with us on stage. Our families have been our bedrock these past few years -- mostly staying home as we toured and grew the Love Only Grows movement. It's important for them to be with us for this epic event.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The goal is to make this concert film a gorgeous, transformative experience that will inspire people and remind them of the true meaning of Christmas for years to come.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>"With all the materialism that attempts to overwhelm the Christmas season, we feel the call to counter this trend with a soulful reverence and simplicity that hearkens back to the origins of Christmas," explains Matthew.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>"We both responded with an immediate YES when discussing the prospect of bringing a Love Only Grows energy and feel to the Christmas songs we've chosen for this album," adds Davya.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For every donation of $50 and above, you will receive a signed <em>The Dawn of Love </em>Christmas album thanking you for your support as well as a first-look preview of the concert film when it is ready.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>All of Matthew and Davya's recordings these past 2 years have been made possible by generous donations from individuals and families like you. Each of us is being called right now to play a significant role in the lifting up and transformation of this world through Christly love and compassion. Your participation counts in a very real way!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for helping us share this new Christmas album and concert series with a world that is in great need of healing and wholeness. Christ the Savior is born! Merry Christmas!
</div>

Love Only Grows' Christmas Album on Tour AND a Concert Film!

<div>World Central Kitchen (WCK) mourns the tragic loss of Saifeddin Issam Ayad Abutaha, Lalzawmi (Zomi) Frankcom, Damian Soból, Jacob Flickinger, John Chapman, James (Jim) Henderson, and James Kirby, who dedicated their lives to serving others. These selfless individuals exemplified the true spirit of compassion and courage, and risked their lives daily to provide assistance and relief to those in dire need.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On April 1, the team was hit by an IDF strike on their way back from a food delivery mission. These heroes paid the ultimate price for their service to humanity, leaving behind grieving families who must cope with the loss of their loved ones while struggling with financial burdens. This collective effort is in addition to WCK’s contributions to the families and aims to alleviate some of the financial hardships their families may face as they navigate life without their beloved family members. Funds raised from this campaign will be distributed equally among them.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your contribution, no matter how small, will make a meaningful impact. By coming together as a community, we help ease their burden during this time of profound grief.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for your generosity and compassion.

<div>10/18/2023 - The outpouring of aloha you have shown our ohana is beyond what we thought could be possible and we are immensely touched by your generosity and kind words.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So far we have distributed your donations to each of our 298 employees and their families and have shared your stories with them all. Your messages of encouragement, support, and fond memories are truly amazing and have touched our hearts.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We have reopened this employee fundraiser after many requests from our future and past guests who wanted a way to donate directly to our ohana. Mahalo to everyone who has already donated or who plans to. Your generosity is greatly appreciated!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Again, our deepest MAHALO and ALOHA to each of you!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>***UPDATE*** 8/18/23 We are so grateful for all of the love and support you have shown our 298 employees! We continue to learn of the ways these fires have changed the lives of our families forever and through donations like yours, we will be able to share some relief to each and every one of them! Families are finding their way from shelters to transitional housing, clothes, food and necessities are available to each and transportation is being addressed.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Mahalo nui loa to all of you - our extended ohana! Through your generosity and kind words we are able to see hope for a future that includes you all. In the meantime, we will continue to focus on our employees and their needs.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>***UPDATE*** 8/15/23 Of our 298 employees, 131 of them have lost their homes. Every dollar of your donations will reach the directly affected, prioritizing those who have the greatest need. We are currently taking the time to talk to each person in our work 'ohana to assess the extent of their losses and how we can best help with their specific needs.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Mahalo to each and every one of you that have donated to our employee fund thus far - we are unbelievably touched by your kindness. The outreach and outpouring of aloha has been so overwhelming and we could not be more grateful. We have recognized many of your names from your past visits to Old Lahaina Luau, Star Noodle, and Leoda's Kitchen and Pie Shop and look forward to sharing aloha with you all again.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On August 8, 2023, our beloved and historic Lahaina town was devastated by wildfires. Many of our 298 employees have either lost their homes or have been displaced due to this tragedy. While we are fortunate to report that most of our structures still stand; our employees have experienced life-changing losses.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As a company, we will rebuild, however, we honestly have no idea when tourism and our businesses will reopen in West Maui. Our employees are our priority, and we continue to support them in all ways. We are humbled by the outpouring of support from our many families, friends, colleagues, and guests who have recently asked how they can help - in response we have set up this page. 100% of the funds collected will be distributed to employees based on their needs, to help them with necessities in the interim as they rebuild their homes and their lives, which could take years.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The ‘ohana at Na Hoaloha Ekolu is a proud and supportive organization that has always put employees and the community first. We have been so blessed to share the aloha at our lu’au to almost four million guests since 1986, shared amazing meals with many more at Star Noodle and Leoda’s Kitchen and Pie shop, and have supported countless non-profit organizations through charitable donations and volunteer work during the past 37 years. For generations, Lahaina has been a town known for its pride and resilience. If you want to directly support our employees affected by the recent fires, please consider a donation to this campaign.
</div>

<div><strong>**UPDATE:</strong> This fundraiser was initially established to support a toy drive for Damar’s community, sponsored by the Chasing M’s Foundation. However, it has received renewed support in light of Damar’s current battle and we can’t thank all of you enough. Your generosity and compassion mean the world to us.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As representatives of Damar, the team at Jaster Athletes posted the fundraiser updates and will work with the Hamlin family, The Chasing M's Foundation, and the GoFundMe team to ensure the safe delivery of funds.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Damar created The Chasing M’s Foundation to use as a vehicle to bring lasting impact to his community. The foundation supports toy drives, back-to-school drives, kids camps, and more. We're hopeful about Damar's future involvement in disbursing the incredibly generous contributions.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This is the only current fund that is being used by the Hamlin Family. We appreciate your understanding as we give them the time and space they need to focus on Damar's health first.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Again, thank you for your thoughts, prayers and support during this time. <strong>UPDATE**</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>------------------------------------------------------------
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As I embark on my journey to the NFL, I will never forget where I come from and I am committed to using my platform to positively impact the community that raised me. I created The Chasing M's Foundation as a vehicle that will allow me to deliver that impact, and the first program is the 2020 Community Toy Drive.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This campaign gives you the opportunity to contribute to our first initiative and positively impact children who have been hardest hit by the pandemic. 100% of the funds raised will go toward the purchase of toys for kids in need.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you are not able to contribute monetarily, you can support this initiative in other ways. We are accepting donated toys at the Daycare Center or simply spread the word by sharing this fundraiser on your social channels.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you so much for supporting me on and off the field. I am grateful to have the opportunity to work with you to help make the holiday season a little brighter for the kids in our community.

The Chasing M's Foundation Community Toy Drive

In honor of Robert J. Rockabrand: to support music and the arts, Christian Science and scholarship, all of which were important to Bob. <br /><br />On September 23, 2020, Robert J. Rockabrand passed away peacefully surrounded by his family. He had just celebrated his 89th birthday. <br /><br />To many, Bob was a figure on the stage; singing, laughing, teaching and sharing his love of music and passion for learning. To others, he was a friend, mentor, leader and scholar. To his family, he was a beloved husband and loving father. <br /><br />Bob began his collegiate education at Principia College where he earned a Bachelor of Arts in Creative Writing. Immediately upon graduating, he was drafted into the Army where he served the country for two years before returning to academia to pursue a Bachelor and then a Master of Music degree at Westminster Choir College in Princeton, New Jersey. It was at Westminster that he met his lifetime sweetheart, Sara Turner. Their love developed quickly, and when Sara graduated in 1961, they were married. After teaching at Westminster for six years, Bob and his bride headed to Stanford University where he earned a Doctorate of Musical Arts. He went on to teach for five years at Ball State University in Indiana and for one year at The North Carolina School of the Arts before joining the music department at Principia College in 1975. He served the department and the college for 22 years as a Professor of music and as freshman advisor to the gentlemen of Rackham Court West until his retirement in 1997. <br /><br />As a professor, he was often described as “tough, but fair”. While this tough, but fair reputation sometimes required a large number of red pens and countless late nights, it was couched in compassion and a sincere desire to see his students learn and succeed. As an advisor, “Rocky” was adored by the men of West. A Patriarch of sorts, he was the recipient of constant, playful teasing from the men of West and regularly participated in the house meetings, an activity he enjoyed even after officially retiring, at which he was often treated as “one of the guys”. <br /><br />Bob was a lifelong Christian Scientist and held dear the principles in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. He was an active member of the church, soloing in various branches for over 60 years and served as first reader for three years in Elsah, Illinois. As a musician and music scholar, Bob served the church on two hymnal revision committees spanning three decades, as well as contributing to the 2008 Hymnal Supplement and then the 2017 Hymnal with his own compositions and arrangements. Until just two weeks before his passing, he and Sara were making the final revisions to a book they are writing, detailing the history of the Christian Science Hymnal and its heritage, including testimonies of healing. <br /><br />Even though Bob was an adored professor and revered community member, his heart always returned to his students, many of whom looked to him as a father figure. In the decades that spanned several generations at Principia, he taught and mentored hundreds of young men and women, delighting in the relationships that were natural to his boyish, playful demeanor. He maintained consistent correspondence with many of his students, stood with some at their weddings and even officiated at others as an ordained Minister. <br /><br />Sara and Bob left their Elsah home of thirty-five years after Sara’s retirement in 2010 to relocate to Goleta, California. Shortly after settling in, Bob, always happiest in the classroom and with students, introduced himself at Westmont College in Santa Barbara where he and Sara have continued to teach for almost ten years. Affectionately known there as Dr. Bob, he continued his life’s calling at Westmont, teaching voice lessons, singing with the choir and touring both domestically and internationally. <br /><br />Those of you who knew Bob need no explanation of what an incredible man he was. His conviction was impenetrable and his laughter contagious. Throughout his entire life, he demonstrated an unquenchable curiosity and an unparalleled passion for life. <br /><br />The family will not be holding any kind of service at this time. In lieu of flowers or cards, if you would like to express your appreciation for Bob in a tangible way, we hope that you will consider donating to this fund so that his legacy can live on through music performance, scholarship and support of the arts.<img src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/51431344_1600909202287030_r.jpeg" width="100%" media_type="3" alt="51431344_1600909202287030_r.jpeg" />

On Saturday, December 14th, 2019, our beloved Scott Hammar tragically passed away. Scott was a son, husband, father, grandfather, uncle, brother, brother-in-law and so much more to the family he left behind. We've set up this page because wonderful friends and family have asked how they can help. All funds donated here will go to support Scott's wife, Jacque, to help her in this time of grief and transition. Thank you for your support, understanding, thoughts and prayers.

Support for the Hammar family

My brother, Noah Gauthier, was the victim of a "hit and run" last week and suffered a diffuse axonal brain injury. For the past week he has been in a coma, but we are optimistic that he is in the process of "waking up." Doctors are still unclear about the full extent of his cognitive abilities now or in the future, but we do know that there is going to be a lot of healing that will need to happen. <br /><br />Though we don't know how long he will need to stay in a rehabilitation facility in Hawaii, we do know that we would like to fly him back home to Colorado when he is able. The cost of the flight will not be covered by his insurance, and flights with medical nurses cost upwards of $10,000. <br /><br />If you are able, please donate to our cause. Our family remains optimistic that this dark cloud might have a silver lining. If he can receive the treatment he needs, we think he may be able to start a new life for himself full of purpose, and hopefully, be a meaningful part of his daughter's life. If you are able to donate, we would be ever so grateful. If not, we'll take prayers and healing thoughts too. :)<br /><br />Much love to all. <br /><br /><img src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/37285880_1551209352335860_r.jpeg" alt="37285880_1551209352335860_r.jpeg" width="100%" media_type="3" />

Noah's Traumatic Brain Injury

<a href="http://abc7.com/news/family-mourns-loss-of-father-killed-in-pasadena-dui-crash/1211791/" target="_blank">Channel 7 news report and video<br /><br /></a> ‌Early on the morning of Sunday, February 21st, husband and beloved father of four Chris Nelson passed tragically, after being rearended by two seperate cars, one of which was drivin by a 24 year old drunk driver that fled the scene, and was later apprehended. <br /><br />Chris loved his family and always put them first.   He worked multiple jobs, and long hours to ensure his daughters received the best private education.   He was a good man and will be greatly missed. <br /><br />Our goal is to help alleviate financial burdens that are in the Nelsons families near future.  From memorial costs, school tuition, and everyday living expenses. <br /><br />Any donations or prayers are appreciated, during their time of grief. <br /><br />Thank you, and God bless.
