PEF Eaton Fire Response Fund

The recent Eaton Fire in Altadena, Pasadena, and Sierra Madre had a devastating impact on Pasadena Unified families, schools, and staff. Nearly 10,000 homes and businesses were destroyed, leaving thousands displaced or facing severe financial hardship.

Donations to the PEF Eaton Fire Response Fund are providing critical support for both immediate relief and long-term recovery, including:

Assisting families and staff in need with direct financial aid.
Providing essential resources to schools and educators.
Enhancing educational and enrichment programs to support student learning.
Supporting rebuilding efforts across the district.

This is a commitment not just for today, but for tomorrow and the future, ensuring that our schools and community can rebuild and thrive.
