Story
This request is for a senior couple, ages 70 and 68, who were affected by the Eaton Fire. The couple was living in a rental that was damaged by the smoke, ash and soot and it needs to be completely restored. The couple was staying in a hotel provided by his renter's insurance but that came to an end and he was forced to use his credit cards to help pay for hotels and Airbnbs. The client has maxed out his credit cards and does not have anywhere to go after checkout of his AirBnb on 2/14/2025. The client has been in contact with his landlord who has promised that he and his wife can return to the home as soon as remediation is completed and it is safe for them to return. It is unknown how long that will take. His landlord suggested looking for a short term rental. The client is on a fixed income and is in need of financial assistance. Their clothing was taken by a company who specializes in cleaning fire affected clothing and he needs help with under garments. The couple has had to throw out their furniture and mattresses and will need help with replacing those items as well. I am requesting financial assistance to help this elderly couple get back on their feet.
