Altadena Residents Invited To Help Shape Eaton Fire Recovery Funding

ALTADENA, CA — Residents and community organizations were invited to discuss funding priorities for Eaton Fire recovery during a CARE Fund Community Implementation Session set for Monday.

The California Community Foundation, Dena Rise Up and the Eaton Fire Collaborative will host the session from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Eaton Fire Collaborative, 540 W. Woodbury Road. Dinner will be provided at 6 p.m.

Organizers said the session will focus on how community-driven projects can address ongoing recovery needs. A focus of the meeting will be an upcoming request for proposals from organizations working on affordable housing and financial aid to help close recovery funding gaps.

Participants can share project ideas for Altadena’s long-term recovery and learn how residents can help select projects for funding.

The event is open to residents affected by the Eaton Fire, nonprofits and community organizations providing housing, financial assistance and recovery services, and anyone interested in learning how recovery funding decisions are made.

Registration via an online form was requested to help organizers plan for dinner.
