Idk what to do really. I’ve been trying to meet a simple $15k goal since Jan of '25 when I lost EVERYTHING in the Eaton Fire. Home, all my stuff, my business. I thought setting a very modest goal would help. It’s completely stalled. I feel like giving up. Can you help? gofund.me/6cf93ed53

ANYTHING towards helping Matt get materials & supplies to start rebuilding. In Jan 2025 #EatonFire burned the entire #AltadenaCommunity to the ground. They've been ghosted by #FEMA & Matt/the whole community is having to rebuild w/ only MA help. Pls RS/QS. Pls do what you can. #HelpFolksLive2026

Day 99 of sobriety still no job news on all the interviews I did week before last. Applying for more everyday. Went to a meeting Only swam twice this week pool has been closed due to air qlty f/massive fire in Boyle Heights Very lonely😔 Please pray for me, for her & that we can walk in grace 🙏

Is there a Coulson helo doing water grabs from Silverlake reservoir for the warehouse fire?

Matt's goal was always $15K - it's GFM AI-generated "step goals" that started lower & keeps moving the goalposts, not Matt. For that reason as well as GFM fees, it's better to use another paylink to help him. Pls RS/QS. Pls do what you can. #HelpFolksLive2026

Matt & the rest of the #AltadenaCommunity lost everything to the #EatonFire of Jan 2025. Ghosted by #FEMA, he & the rest of the community are trying to rebuild on their own. ANYTHING towards materials is good. Pls RS/QS. Pls do what you can. #HelpFolksLive2026

Matt is a handyman and builder who lost everything when a devastating fire annihilated his hometown last year! He's fundraising to pick up the pieces and to replace essential tools and equipment and needs help! Any amount you can give is good! #MutualAid #Helpsky 💸💕🛠️

ANYTHING towards materials to rebuild Matt's house URGENT! He's been scrambling ever since #EatonFire burned out the #AltadenaCommunity in Jan 2025. #FEMA's ghosted the whole community & they're on their own to rebuild. Again ANYTHING is good. Pls RS/QS. Pls do what you can. #HelpFolksLive2026

Okay, folks: The big El Niño update is now out on Weather West! This sure looks like it's going to be a dramatic year from a global climate perspective, and there are major implications for extreme events (across California, the U.S. West, & well beyond).
