Dear Friends,

I’m reaching out with a heavy heart to ask for your support for a family that means the world to me. My lifelong friends, the Padgette family, recently lost their home in the devastating fires in Pacific Palisades.

Darrell, an Afghanistan veteran and devoted husband and father, has dedicated his life to serving others and protecting our country. Martina, a compassionate nurse and my soul sister, has always been there for those in need.

Their incredible kids, Brody and Tristen, are kind, resilient, and full of promise, and their beloved dog Lili has been a loyal companion through it all. This family has always given so much to those around them, and now they need our help to get back on their feet.

The funds raised will go toward securing housing, replacing essential items, and beginning the process of rebuilding their lives after this unimaginable loss. No donation is too small, and every bit of support, whether financial or through sharing this message, means the world to them and to me.

Let’s show the Padgettes the love and support they’ve given to so many of us. Together, we can help them navigate this incredibly difficult time and start rebuilding their lives.

Thank you for your generosity and kindness.

With gratitude,

Cristina & Andre Edelstein
