Support Eugenia Melendez After Fire Loss

Evelyn Aguilar is organizing this fundraiser on behalf of Eugenia Melendez.

Donation protected

Many of you who grew up in Highland Park and attended Franklin High School, at one point, have met Ms. Melendez who has been teaching at Franklin since 1999. She is a magnet math teacher who with all her heart, has given her time and dedication to each one of her students in her class.

Unfortunately my boyfriend’s aunt Eugenia was one of the ones affected by the Eaton Fire. She completely lost her home in Altadena, and I'm just asking for anything to help her out. Your generous donation can make a tremendous difference, helping her and her family recover from this loss. Her family and I wanted to show her how much of an impact she has made throughout her years of teaching in her community.

Below are some photos of what was left of her home and some moments she shared in her home with her family. Thank you again for all the love.
