My mother, Chana Michaeli is a holocaust survivor. Today is the 75th anniversary of her liberation. Last year we were in Hungary, across the street from where she saw her father for the last time, and she told us her story. youtube.com/watch?v=IO2C69PD…
A couple of organizations affected. The Pasadena Jewish Temple and Center burned to the ground. The community is over 100 years old. They have given spiritual support to so many and now they need help to rebuild and continue their legacy of service. gofund.me/8ee52d75
We got two of our dogs from the Pasadena Humane Society. They have taken in over 400 animals from the Eaton Fire emergency. They need medicine and supplies to treat some of the injured and impossibly cute (see below). give.pasadenahumane.org/give…

Many of you know that Hollywood has been hit really hard by a massive downturn in production. Animation is no different, and possibly worse. Please give what you are able to the animation workers on this list: airtable.com/appugwkqKAVGDde…
I worked with Bill Flores on The Mighty Ones. Bill is talented, warm and fun. He worked on Clone High, Chowder, Rugrats and many others. He is recovering from a recent stroke, re-teaching himself to draw with his non-dominant hand. Won't you give him one? gofund.me/1ca4fc74

I'm heartbroken for those suffering unimaginable losses in LA. It's overwhelming. I'm going to share here about people and organizations who can use your help right now. If you can, please contribute to the GoFundMe of my friend of 30+years, Zach Chassler. gofund.me/2a541e04
