Lift International
Altadena Fire Relief Support
Lift International is a faith-centered, community-rooted organization serving families in Altadena and Pasadena. Known for meeting people at the intersection of need and compassion, Lift International plays a trusted role in supporting communities through moments of crisis and transition.
In response to the devastating Altadena fires, Lift International launched an emergency fire relief program by establishing a crisis relief center at the base of the Altadena hills. The center became a hub for immediate assistance, mobilizing donations and volunteers to distribute critical supplies such as water, food, blankets, toiletries, clothing, baby essentials, and car seats. The program was designed to provide fast, dignified, and accessible support to families experiencing displacement and loss.
Impact in Action: Restoring Stability, Dignity, and Hope
The Altadena fires left many families without homes, resources, or a clear path forward. Lift International’s relief efforts filled a critical gap during an urgent moment—ensuring families had access to basic necessities, temporary stability, and ongoing care.
Through direct assistance and community-centered coordination, the program helped households secure safe housing, essential supplies, and continued support as they navigated recovery. Beyond meeting physical needs, Lift International offered reassurance, hope, and spiritual encouragement—reminding families they were not facing the aftermath alone.
This investment strengthened community resilience at a pivotal time. By combining rapid response with trusted local presence, Lift International transformed emergency relief into a foundation for healing and restoration—demonstrating how community-led action can make a lasting difference during times of crisis.
