Every milestone matters: a family returning home, a meaningful conversation, a mailbox raised, and a neighbor helping another brings Altadena one step closer to recovery.
Here's what Rebuild Altadena has been working on and what's coming next:
Our Very FIRST Homecoming Celebration
After passing final inspection, family, friends, neighbors, and community leaders gathered for a joyful Homecoming Celebration as California State Senator Sasha Renée Pérez ceremonially presented the keys to the excited family.
This celebration was a reminder that rebuilding is happening, families are coming home, and Altadena's future is taking shape one home at a time.

Making Our Way Home, One Mailbox at a Time
Verified homeowners who lost their homes and are planning to rebuild are invited to receive a free mailbox and personalize it with paint, colors, and creativity alongside neighbors and volunteers. Painting supplies, light snacks, and beverages will be provided. A limited number of mailboxes will also be available for those who prefer not to paint one.
Rebuild Altadena is partnering with HPP Cares and Eaton Fire Collaborative (EFC) to host a series of Mailbox Giveaway & Painting Parties for families rebuilding after the Eaton Fire.
A mailbox is one of the first visible signs that a family is coming home. Together, we're celebrating every step of the rebuilding journey, and creating moments of hope along the way.
Please note: Participants must provide proof of a fire-affected property address (government-issued ID, utility bill, or similar documentation).
