Helping Robert Simms and his children

Donation protected
Dear Community/Supporters,

I hope this message finds you well. I’m reaching out today on behalf of my best friend, Robert Simms, a devoted single father of two young children from Altadena.

 On Tuesday, January 17, 2025, Robert along with his 11 year old daughter, Ayah, was forced to evacuate their home due to the Eaton Canyon Fire which was quickly approaching their neighborhood. They left with only the bare necessities, believing they would soon return to their home. Their lives as they knew was tragically turned upside down when they discovered their house, memories, and all their possessions were completely loss and turned to ashes. Now they are left to start from the ground up.

As a long-time member of the Altadena community and one of our very first coaches at BWC Hoopz, Robert has always been there to lend a hand and support others in need. Now, it is our turn to support him and his daughter during this incredibly difficult time. They are facing not only the emotional toll of this loss but also the immense challenge of starting from scratch. 

We are asking for your help in any way you can—whether through monetary donations or essential items that can help Robert and his daughter get back on their feet. Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a difference as they work to pick up the pieces and start anew. Your donation will assist them replace uninsured losses and losses ineligible for federal or state assistance.

Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and support for Robert and his daughter during this heartbreaking time. Together, we can help them re-establish their lives and emerge stronger than ever.

Warm regards,
Deverion Mackey
