Hello everyone,
My name is Deborah and this was my home for nearly 40 years. My family did not get anything out of the house before it burned down. They were out of town and I was on the other side of LA for work when the fire started and stayed.
Away the whole night due to the high winds that were throwing debris on the freeway as I began to drive back. Had no idea the fire would spread so west and so low in Altadena. Like others, we lost our personal items like our clothes and furniture and also lost irreplaceable items connected with our past and now are also coming to grips with underinsurance, even for rental coverage in this tight market. The house was especially important for my adult son with special needs who needs to remain based in the area for services and this house was supposed to provide a secure place for him in the future. Any amount will be appreciated in our attempt to find temporary housing and rebuild our home in this tight market, replace uninsured personal items like a desktop computer and a camera my son used for animation, and towards recovery.
This is an incredibly challenging time, and I’m reaching out for your support to help me recover from this horrible dream. Your generosity, whether through donations or by sharing this campaign, would mean the world to me.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for any support you can provide.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Deborah
