Support the O'Malleys After Eaton Fire

Like so many others, the O’Malley family has tragically lost their home to the devastating Eaton fire. Though we are profoundly grateful that everyone is safe, they have lost everything. Christopher O’Malley—a beloved teacher in Glendale, a dedicated member of the Altadena Town Council, a devoted husband, and the proud father of his son Lincoln, named after his favorite president—has spent his life inspiring his students and improving his community. Now, he and his family need our help.

Who We Are

As one of his former students from his favorite and very first AP U.S. History class, I’ve been deeply impacted by Mr. O’Malley’s boundless kindness, wisdom, and dedication to others. Together, my classmates and I are rallying to support him and his family as they navigate this unimaginable loss. Not only is he an extraordinary teacher and mentor, but he has also been a passionate advocate for creating positive change in Altadena through his work on the town council. His love for his family, his students, and his community is unmatched, and now it’s our turn to give back to someone who has given so much.

Even in the face of this tragedy, the O’Malley family’s strength and selflessness have been unwavering. True to their character, they redirected initial donations to the American Red Cross to help others affected by the fire. This speaks volumes about their integrity and compassion, but now it’s time to focus on helping them get back on their feet.

Every dollar raised will go directly toward helping Chris, his wife, and their son Lincoln recover their lives. Your generosity—no matter how large or small—will make a meaningful difference to a family that has poured so much love into their community.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for any support you can offer during this difficult time. Let’s come together to honor and support the O’Malleys, showing them the same care and compassion they have always shown to others. Together, we can help them get back on their feet and continue their mission of inspiring and uplifting everyone around them.
