Urgent Support Needed for First AME Church Pasadena

54 members of First AME Church Pasadena, led by Rev. Larry Campbell, have tragically lost their homes in the recent wildfires. We are asking for your immediate support through a special fundraising effort with a goal of $10,000 to support these families in need.

Our First Lady, Clare Anderson-Fox, will be the point person for collection efforts to support First AME Church Pasadena and their congregation. For your convenience, donations can be made via Venmo and CashApp at the following:

  • Venmo: @clarefox

Your generosity will directly assist with immediate needs like housing, food, and clothing. Every gift makes a difference. Let’s show the love of Christ and support our brothers and sisters in Pasadena.

Thank you for your compassion!
