Fire Relief for Niki and Chuck after the Palisades Fire

Donation protected
Hello friends and family,

As many of you know, a devastating fire is tearing through Topanga and LA. On Tuesday, January 7th, my Mom, her partner Chuck, and my brother Benjamin evacuated to stay safe. Within the next couple of hours, the fire had engulfed the ridge where they live and took every building with it. This is the home I grew up in, the home we had just spent a beautiful Thanksgiving in as a big family, and the home my mother tended and took care of for nearly 17 years.

This news is devastating and it honestly hasn't fully set in yet. These next few months will be full of new beginnings and starting over which won't be easy. With the loss of their home and the losses in the greater area, income will be challenging. Your support will help them cover costs not covered by other forms of aid.

I understand these fires have affected thousands of people and animal kind. If you feel moved, please support my family however you can by donating or sharing.

I am so grateful that my family is safe.
Thank you for listening.
Sebastian, for Niki and Chuck.
