Support The Wards After the Devastating Eaton Fire

Donation protected
Chris and his parents, Cheryl and Lee Ward, need our help. The family's home of 35 years in Altadena was completely leveled in the Eaton Fire. It is abundantly clear where Chris gets his kind-hearted, generous nature—his parents. Everyone who ever knew Chris, Cheryl, and Lee will speak of their warmth and spirit.

This home was everything Cheryl and Lee had, and was Chris and his wife Erin's future. In addition to this devastating loss, the Wards are facing Lee's advanced-stage Alzheimer's, and are now dealing with the extreme costs of having no choice but to place him in a memory care facility after the loss of their home. The Wards are facing unimaginable challenges all at once, and anything you can do to help support would mean the world to them.

Amazingly, Cheryl was able to find an apartment to move into just across the street from Chris and Erin. She has no essentials, furniture, artwork, or anything to furnish it with, so your support can help Cheryl reimagine her own living space for the first time in decades.

UPDATE** Thank you so much for everyone's incredible generosity. We are increasing the goal so we can make sure The Wards get everything they need. Please continue to share!

This fundraiser was created by Paige Hart and Brian Elerding, friends of the Ward family. All money raised will go directly to Chris, Cheryl, and Lee Ward.
