SUPPORT EATON FIRE VICTIMS

Please join us in showing our support for Altadena Community Church (ACC) and San Gabriel Valley Chess Club (SGVCC) members who lost so much. On the evening of January 7, the ACC caught fire about 10:30 PM. It had been SGVCC’s home since October of 2021. Sadly, it burned to the ground, leaving its staff and congregants without jobs or their place of worship. ACC had a long tradition of supporting many community groups in its Heicher Hall that adjoined the Church. These included not only SGVCC but also a choral and folk dancing group. Pastor Paul, facility manager Susannah Mills, and their staff had been so supportive of SGVCC. The fire also destroyed the homes of at least four SGVCC members.

Below are links to four Go Fund Me pages that we hope you will consider. Every small amount helps.
