Crescenta Valley Church

A local Altadena lived in their home for 48 years. This is the home where they have raised their family an it was all gone in an instant. They have insurance and they have been partially paid out. The unfortunately they did not have coverage on relocation. This has resulted in them needing to pay for their mortgage ($2,200) and their rent ($3,200) totaling $5,400. They are using their partial payout to help cover their new rental while they are waiting to rebuild. The couple is severely rent-burdened, relying on savings and limited fixed income while their permanent home remains uninhabitable. Their resilience is evident in their commitment to rebuild and remain in the community, yet she continues to face serious challenges: Permanent Housing Support: Though the couple plans to rebuild, they need support with basic furnishings, summer clothing, and other essentials once construction is complete.

A single man who grew up in Altadena lost his home in the fire. He has now been able to secure housing but is in need of assistance with some final items for his home. He is finally back to working after the fires and is in need of some more kitchen and house hold items until he is able to have more money coming in.

Grandparents ages 60 & 61 recently took in their three granddaughters ages, 17, 14, & 11 without any financial assistance from the Department of Child and Family Services or any other government assistance. Everything seemed to have been going well until the increase of ICE raids in our community, this family is facing fear like many others and the additional work hours they would count on to make ends meet have decreased. These grandparents need your support with their gas bill to get back on track and are hopeful that soon things can settle down to continue with their normal work lives without any fear to live in a safe country.
