These are just a few of the people in my immediate community whom I dearly love and admire, who are in great need right now, after having tragically lost their homes and everything they owned in the recent Los Angeles area fires. Fundraisers have been organized for each of them and their families, which should be accessible simply by clicking on the photos. If not, I’ve added the fundraising link in each caption. There are so many people in need right now. Finding someone who needs help and showing up for them, over time, in whatever ways we can — small or big — will mean so much to them as they navigate through the difficult days, weeks, and months ahead. Wishing blessings for you all in this new year, which is turning out to be quite a doozy.

Love and blessings to all — Anthony Wilson
