Help Support Max & Lauren After the Eaton Fire

Our May & Ward family hearts are heavy and broken; we never thought we would be creating a fundraiser for our Maxwell & Lauren, who have lost their home in the devastating Eaton Fire on January 8th, 2025. With only a few belongings and their two dogs, they fled the area in the late evening of January 7th and took shelter in the Glendale hills, thinking they’d be able to return in a day or two. The next morning, we were devastated to receive a call from Max & Lauren stating that their house had burned down, like so many others.

Those of you who know them know that they poured so much love and labor into their home since the day they received the keys. Their home was a place where family and friends gathered. It held precious, irreplaceable memorabilia.

We are reaching out to ask for your donation to help support Max & Lauren begin to pick up the pieces, if you are able. Any bit helps and is so greatly appreciated. All funds will be used for things related to starting their life again after being devastated by this disaster. We understand that this unbelievable tragedy has affected so many lives and we are truly so thankful for your support.
