My brilliant and vivacious mother has lost her home and all of her possessions in the Palisades Fire. My sister and I want to do anything to help make this transition easier for her, in whatever way we can.

Jenny did not own her home but rented it for the last 8 years. She is unable to recoup many of the costs of the destruction afforded to homeowners in the area, and is unsure if she will ever be able to return to the place she called home, even if it is eventually rebuilt.

Jenny began her career as a model in the 1990s, becoming an essential member of the fashion community during the industry’s peak of creativity, showmanship, and artistry. She raised two daughters and cultivated a modest and beautiful home for herself and my sister, Edie. Most importantly for Jenny, her home provided her with access to the peacefulness of nature. Before, after, or in between work, she made time to hike up Temescal almost daily for the last eight years — a place which her hiking group called their Healing Hill. I am touched by her description of the experience of this hike over the years, and the many bonds and friendships formed thanks to this community she found in the Palisades.

Edie and I want to help our mom get back on her feet after this devastation. She lost absolutely everything except the clothes she was wearing and her laptop. Please help if you can, and please share our fundraiser far and wide.

Thank you,

Ella Rose Flood
