Help Ani Relocate After Fires and Loss

With heavy hearts, we are asking for donations to raise funds to help relocate our incredibly kind, talented and huge-hearted friend, Ani Tzenkova and her two children who must relocate due to the devastating fires in the Pacific Palisades. Their entire community has been destroyed by this unprecedented disaster.

Ani’s home and entire neighborhood is uninhabitable for the foreseeable future. Her children’s middle school is relocating, and so we are raising funds to help Ani find immediate housing so her kids can get back to school as soon as possible, and for them to purchase essential household items. Additionally, Ani had dedicated the last few years to establishing a locations and real estate business largely in the Palisades area, so her work is on indefinite hold.

We are hoping to ease the burden by offering some community support during this traumatic event. Unfortunately this is not Ani and her kids' first disaster relocation: they lost their home in NYC during Hurricane Sandy, and then their business and home due to Covid. Our hearts break that this family is victim to unprecedented disaster yet again.

Any contributions are greatly appreciated to help this wonderful family find somewhere safe to rebuild their lives.

Funds are being raised by Mika Cali + Elizabeth Wood, college friends of Ani and her family. We are both located in the NYC area and will be assisting her with relocating and ensuring these funds go to her and her children.

Thank you,

-Mika + Elizabeth
