Restore Home and Hope for Marlin's Family After Fire Loss

My Siblings and myself (Jacky) are doing this GoFundMe for our sister Marlin & her family.

My sister Marlin and brother-in-law Manuel, along with their two little ones—Emmanuel and Emma, both toddlers—have suffered an unimaginable loss. The recent fires in Malibu destroyed their home, taking with it everything they had worked so hard to build.

Over the past five years, my sister has overcome incredible challenges, including achieving sobriety, to provide a better life for her family. Together, they’ve worked tirelessly to create a safe and loving home, living modestly in a small trailer in Malibu. But in just hours, the fire swept through and left them with nothing.

Manuel, a dedicated gardener, also lost his tools essential for his work. With many of his clients’ homes destroyed as well, he’s now left without a job and facing the daunting challenge of starting over from nothing.

Now, we’re asking for your help. Starting over feels overwhelming, but with your support, they can begin to rebuild. Any donation, no matter how small, will make a significant difference in helping them find stability again. From essentials like clothes and food to a safe place to stay, every contribution counts.

Please consider donating to their GoFundMe and sharing their story with others who might be able to help. Your generosity will provide hope to Emmanuel, Emma, and their parents during this incredibly difficult time.

Let’s come together to show them they’re not alone. Thank you for opening your hearts to a family in need.
