Story
I am requesting financial assistance for a family consisting of 4 adults, 2 of them being seniors. The client lived in the backhouse of the property they own in Pasadena, where they were renting the front house out to tenants. Unfortunately, the backhouse was completely destroyed.The fronthouse suffered substantial damage and is uninhabitable. The client was fortunate enough to get assistance from their insurance company with getting a rental in Downtown LA where they have secured a lease for the next year while they await the rebuilding of their home. The client is the only one working. His wife lost her place of employment due to the fires. The client had to purchase new furniture and household essentials. His inlaws are from Peru but are residents of the United States and will be applying for the disaster relief SNAP/Calfresh assistance. The client was denied assistance from FEMA due to his insurance claim but will be appealing once he gets the proper documentation from his insurance company. The client is also in need of prescription eyeglasses which he lost while having to move from hotels to Airbnb's while being evacuated. Unfortunately, he does not have vision coverage through his insurance. In the meantime, the client and his family could really benefit from financial assistance to help alleviate some of the costs he has already incurred and to help him get his glasses.
