Request: #235073 • Urgency: High • Demographic: Disaster Relief Request • City: Altadena • State: California • Zip Code: 91001 • County: Los Angeles • Submitted By: SoCal Relief & Recovery Collective

Story

•
1 Child

We are advocating on behalf of a resilient young man who was completely displaced during the Eaton Fire. While he did receive some temporary assistance through 211LA, he has since fallen through the cracks and has not been able to secure consistent support from FEMA or any other relief sources. Since the fire, he has been moving from place to place with no secure or stable housing. He often has no choice but to sleep in his car, and is facing significant food insecurity. To make matters worse, he is behind on his car note, and the risk of losing his vehicle would remove the only consistent shelter and transportation he currently has. This young man is in urgent need of: Temporary housing or hotel assistance, Grocery or meal support, Help catching up on his car note to avoid repossession. He is doing his best to restabilize and regain footing after this devastating displacement but cannot do so without critical community support.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

A student at school where I work shared with me yesterday and mother confirmed when I called that both the electricity and gas have been shut off at their apartment for failure to pay the utility bills. Mother works 5 days a week- 12 hours a day from 3 a.m. until 4 p.m. including travel time. She is a single mother and has 4 children. Neither of the two fathers of her children provide any type of child support. One father lives in Kansas and is an active alcoholic. Their rent is $1500 a month.
The student at my school had cancer as a child and wears a prosthetic eye due to the cancer he has. He also is on the Autism Spectrum and is considered a student with a disability. He tends to wear the same clothing each day and struggles greatly with managing his anger. Mother plans on paying the light bill as it is low enough where she can pay if off but the gas bill has gotten so high and she is unable to pay it. It is estimated to be $900. She is undocumented so we are uncertain as to which utility billing relief programs she may be eligible for. She receives a 30 minute lunch break each day so I don't know how she would even have time to apply for these programs given her working hours are mostly business hours.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

A hard working single mom of 4 children (age ranges between one and eleven) from the Goddard area has reached out for help. She works with foster children and cleans houses for income but stated that her work has slowed down this past month and she was unable to pay her electric bill. Initially she thought the company was going to work with her on lowering her payments but unfortunately the company is unable to accommodate. Her electricity is scheduled to be turned off on 6/5/25 if she is unable to pay the $347.00. Would anyone be willing to help this family?

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

We have an opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of a single mother and her two young children. She’s working hard to provide for her family, but it’s tough to keep up with laundry when she can’t get to the laundromat. 
Right now, they’re sleeping on mattresses on the floor, and she’s seeking gently used washer and dryer units to ensure her kids have clean clothes. Additionally, bed frames would help restore their dignity and self-esteem.
Let’s come together as a community to support this family! If you have any appliances or beds to donate, please reach out! Every little bit helps!
