Why Did You Choose to Serve on the Board of Directors? After surviving the Eaton Fire pretty much unscathed, I felt the need to give back to the community I've grown to love here in Altadena for the past 13 yrs and saw a news report that said AMOW needed volunteers. I have used MOW previously for my mother down in South Orange County and fully believe in what a wonderful service they provide.
