Goal
Help us Rise From the Flames
The Westside Waldorf School in Pacific Palisades, California, suffered a profound loss when its McComb Campus was destroyed in the Palisades Fire on January 8, 2025. This historic building, along with its beautiful courtyard and spiral of classrooms, has been a cornerstone of Waldorf education, nurturing countless children and families in the Westside of Los Angeles since January 2007. The entire campus for grades one through eight, including the woodshop where the heights of every student have been lovingly marked on the wall, has been lost. As the remaining fires burn out, we will assess the damage to the Early Childhood structures that are still standing.
In addition to losing their school, many of our students and faculty are facing displacement, ongoing evacuations, and the loss of their homes and belongings. Our greatest wish is to rebuild as a way to heal and demonstrate our commitment to our beloved and resilient community. We kindly ask for your support in these efforts. Your donations will directly assist our school in sustaining Waldorf education now and rebuilding swiftly for the future.
