Every City of Glendale employee is a first responder. Like Glendale’s firefighters, police officers, power linemen, and Public Works staff, they work tirelessly 24 hours a day, putting their lives on the line to protect our community. Many more City staff members also report to work during emergencies, providing critical support to those on the front lines.
We acknowledge the sacrifices our City employees make by selflessly running toward danger to protect our families, homes, and the community—often leaving their own loved ones and possessions behind. Tragically, they have faced the unimaginable: losing their homes or suffering damage while serving the community.
This is what occurred during the recent wildfires. Whether it was last month or this month, on a daily basis they put Glendale first, leaving their own families to face challenges alone.
Now, it’s our turn to respond and pay it forward. We’re raising funds to support our City employees who have been personally impacted by these tragedies. Every dollar raised will go toward helping them rebuild their lives—providing assistance for housing repairs, essential needs, and the resources they need to recover from these hardships.
Let’s show them that their sacrifices have not gone unnoticed. Your donation, big or small, will make a difference in the lives of those who have given so much to protect our City.
Please share this campaign with your friends, family, and networks. Together, we can stand in solidarity with our fellow heroes and help them rebuild stronger than ever.
