Story
Single mother in her late 50’s has a daughter in college, a dog and a cat. They were victims of the Pacific Palisades fire. The daughter is set to return from college on 05/05/25, and live with the mother permanently. Mother has a small business that she was working from her home at the time of the disaster. The mother home was completely destroyed and lost all of her items both personal and her business. Mother was able to purchase some clothing, office equipment, pet supplies and other household items, however, she purchased these items on credit card. She has pending cases with FEMA and SBA for assistance, as well as waiting for her insurance to assess the damage. She did get some monetary assistance from FEMA, which helped with some of her expenses and establishing new housing, but she still hasn't replaced everything or the big furniture items yet in her home. The request will help assist the mother with paying off her credit card debt, and purchasing other household items that the family will need.
