Help the Bondsmith family rebuild their lives in Altadena.

Our brother, his wife and their three children lost their beautiful Altadena home and everything in it in the Eaton Fire, which roared in from the mountains, with no warning for so many. Their home meant everything to them, the warmest house you ever did see, filled with love and laughter, their doors always open to neighbors, friends and family. They have lost all that they hold dear - heirlooms, their children’s art, all the things one collects over a lifetime. Forced to evacuate with only the clothes on their backs and their beloved cats, they find themselves starting from scratch and need everything one needs to live: clothes, shoes, electronics, eyeglasses, kitchen wares, furniture, bedding, a new place to live. Our brother is an attorney who practiced from home. His business too is gone and his wife lost her place of business when the school where she’s taught the children of her community for many years, also burned to the ground.

Your support would mean so much to us and even more to them, and your generosity, no matter the size, will go directly to clothing, food, medications, vehicles - all that is needed for them to start over.

Our gratitude in advance for helping them start over,

Mary Jo, Jen, Barbara, Autumn and Aleix
