Stronger Together: Supporting 'Dena Fire Victims

Dear 'Dena Community & Beyond,

The recent wildfires in Los Angeles have devastated our community, leaving over 100 families—our cherished patients at Mint Dental Loft—without homes, belongings, and a sense of security. These are more than just patients to us; they are our neighbors, our friends, and part of our family.

The fires destroyed homes filled with a lifetime of memories, treasures, and irreplaceable belongings. The loss felt by our community has been overwhelming, and we are heartbroken for every family impacted.

All contributions will go directly to helping these families rebuild their lives—helping with relocation costs, essential needs, and beginning the long journey of recovery.

Meet the Families You Are Helping:

Karla Perdomo – "Me and my family were affected by the wildfires of Eaton, in Altadena. The fire completely burned down our home and we didn’t have a chance to recover anything. We have been out of a home for the past few months. Living from Airbnb to hotels to staying with friends. It’s amazing what mint dental loft is doing for the community of Altadena by raising money for those affected."

Rae & Jerry Murbach – "The wildfires changed our lives dramatically--overnight we lost everything and needed to find a place to stay. Luckily, my sister and her husband welcomed us to move in with them for a week while we tried to figure things out. Immediately, we needed to buy essential items--laptop computers, clothing, toiletries, etc.and adjust to being homeless--it sure made us appreciate what we had. Our life now is dealing with our insurance company, evaluating our ability to rebuild, and getting our lives back on track. We are so fortunate to have friends, family, and organizations to help us on this difficult road. Slowly, but surely, we are making progress--however, we have a long way to go. We are very grateful that so many people care about victims of the Eaton Canyon Fire. It is especially touching that your entire staff dedicated time to help those of us who lost their homes. Words cannot express how we feel. We are so thankful that so many people care--it is very difficult losing everything and trying to rebuild our lives. During this difficult time, we have met so many wonderful people--those in our same situation and those willing to help. Altadena is a wonderful place to live and with hard work, dedicated residents, and support, it will thrive. "

Meryl Vedros – "I had to permanently relocate from our 3 bedroom house in Altadena. We are currently in temporary housing in a 1 bedroom AirBnB in Los Feliz with no plans to find permanent housing anytime soon. My fiance Jason and I plan to get married in 2 months, and there's a lot of fear ahead for us that we don't have a permanent home to return to."

And many more...

We will continue updating this section as we distribute funds to community members in need.

Together, we can provide hope and relief to these families as they begin to rebuild their lives. Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and support. We are forever grateful for this amazing community.

'Dena Strong!
