Altadena Fire Relief for Evan and Amy

My name is Ryan Noble. I live in Pasadena. My good friends, Evan Reiss & Amy Harrity (and their two beautiful kids, Frankie and Rosalie) have been displaced by the devastating Eaton Fire in Altadena. Their house is still standing, but it is severely damaged, and they face a long, expensive road as they get their lives back together. In the family's words:

"We felt deeply conflicted about starting a GoFundMe because so many of our close friends have lost everything. Even though our house is still standing, we’re coming to terms with the hard reality that difficult financial times lie ahead.

All of our savings were invested into our house, which now is a total loss. Despite the care we put into making it a beautiful home, it stands in a graveyard of rubble and toxic waste.

Our future is full of unknowns: your help will allow us to address the many aspects of recovery and support for our family through this crisis.

Altadena was our favorite part about Los Angeles. It’s where we built a strong, loving community that carried us through the tender years of early parenthood. Now, as so many people we care about need help, we find ourselves needing help too."

Evan & Amy's neighborhood was destroyed:

Bird's eye view, before and after the fire:

Amy is a gifted photographer who took the first professional photos of my band, The Soft White Sixties over 15 years ago. She's had a lot of success since then, and has developed her own unique style. Evan is a gifted musician and songwriter. I've been a fan of all his projects and, in recent years, I've had the pleasure of playing bass and singing harmonies in his latest project. Little Frankie and Rosalie loved the house and played in the yard every day.

These folks were there for me when I was going through a tough time in my life and I'd like to return the favor by helping them build a little support as they make their way back to square.

Please share a little if you can, and please share this link with your friends and family. Thank you.
