In Scorched Altadena, Volunteers Did a Lot of the Real Work

Since the Eaton fire started, I have left my house every day to help with whatever needs to get done.

It began with people who had left town with their families during evacuation but wanted to know if their homes or apartments were still there.

As things downgraded from emergency status, there was a lot of confusion and uncertainty.

There was still no government (local or federal) help in Altadena as far as I could tell.

Local communities began to organize makeshift groups of disaster workers and cleanup crews.

Social media has made information and networking instantly available to a massive population, but it's also brought out the worst in people.

Profiteers descended on community members almost immediately.

Fat Tony : "My Altadena dream is dead. The home I loved and wanted to remain in for the rest of my life is never coming back" Fat Tony says he's scared that the Altadena community will no longer reflect the city’s notable history when the community is revived.
