Eaton Canyon Fire Special Grant Application

Eaton Canyon Fire Special Grant Application

Presented by the Rotary Club of South Pasadena and South Pasadena Rotary Foundation


Grant Purpose:


To provide up to $2,000 to individuals or families who lost their homes in the Eaton Canyon Fire - specific grant to help them replace meaningful or special item(s) lost in the fire.


The Rotary Club of South Pasadena and the South Pasadena Rotary Foundation are honored to announce a special grant opportunity for individuals and families who lost their homes in the recent Eaton Canyon fire. Thanks to the generous proceeds from the 11th Annual Taste of South Pasadena, we are able to offer special grants of up to $2,000 per family or individual to help replace meaningful and treasured items lost in the fire.


We understand that beyond basic needs covered by insurance, there are irreplaceable pieces of life — beloved books, album collections, special tools and materials, or perhaps assistance with purchasing services of need — things that people need and to help make their new house feel like home. While they may not be ready to build just yet, special items that are meaningful can be healing. This grant program is designed to help restore some of those deeply personal losses and assist our fire survivor neighbors as they rebuild and heal.
