Prepare for Disaster - Tips to be Ready

Stephanie Hogue·January 16, 2025

Our hearts are with those who have lost their homes and businesses in the devastating Los Angeles fires. The start of a new year should bring hope, but for many, it brings uncertainty and hardship. Our thoughts are with them, and we encourage everyone to support recovery efforts in any way they can.

Here are several organizations actively involved in relief efforts for those affected by the Los Angeles fires:

  • American Red Cross Los Angeles : Providing emergency shelter, food, and support to displaced individuals.

  • California Fire Foundation : Offering financial assistance to families of fallen firefighters and supporting communities affected by fires.

  • World Central Kitchen : Distributing meals to both victims and first responders in the affected areas.

  • Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation : Supporting the LAFD by funding essential equipment, training, and public outreach programs.

  • Los Angeles Regional Food Bank : Providing food assistance to those impacted by the fires.

  • California Community Foundation's Wildfire Relief Fund : Supporting intermediate and long-term recovery efforts for those affected by wildfires.

  • Pasadena Humane Society : Caring for animals displaced by the fires and seeking foster homes.

  • GoFundMe's 2025 Wildfire Relief Fund : Facilitating verified donations to support wildfire relief efforts.

Donating to any of these organizations can make a significant impact in aiding recovery and providing essential services to those in need.



How to Photograph Your Valuables for Insurance Claims

In the event of a disaster, having clear, well-documented photos of your valuables can make the insurance claims process much smoother. Follow these tips to properly photograph your belongings and keep a secure record.


Photography Tips:


✅ Use Good Lighting – Take photos in natural light or use a flash to ensure clarity.


✅ Capture Multiple Angles – Photograph each item from different perspectives, including any identifying marks or serial numbers.


✅ Include Close-Ups – Get detailed shots of brand names, model numbers, receipts, and appraisals when possible.


✅ Show Scale – Place a common object (such as a coin or ruler) next to small valuables to show size.


✅ Open Drawers & Cabinets – Photograph items stored inside furniture, closets, or storage spaces.


✅ Document Collections Together & Individually – If you have a collection (jewelry, watches, artwork, etc.), take group shots and individual photos.


✅ Take Video Walkthroughs – Slowly walk through your home with your phone or camera, narrating details about high-value items.


✅ Use Cloud Storage or External Backups – Store copies of your photos digitally so they’re accessible even if your home is damaged.



Essential Items to Photograph for Insurance Claims:


Electronics & Appliances:

📷 TVs, computers, tablets, and smartphones
📷 Cameras, drones, and accessories
📷 Kitchen appliances (refrigerator, stove, microwave, coffee maker)
📷 Washer, dryer, and vacuum cleaners


Jewelry & Watches:

📷 Rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings
📷 Luxury or custom watches


Artwork & Collectibles:

📷 Paintings, sculptures, and fine art photography
📷 Antiques, figurines, and memorabilia
📷 Signed books, rare collections


Furniture & Home Décor:

📷 Sofas, dining sets, beds, and dressers
📷 Rugs, chandeliers, and mirrors
📷 Outdoor furniture and grills


Important Documents:

📷 Birth certificates, passports, and Social Security cards
📷 Property deeds, mortgage papers, and vehicle titles
📷 Insurance policies and wills


Clothing & Accessories:

📷 Designer clothing, handbags, and shoes
📷 Sunglasses, belts, and high-end luggage


Vehicles & Equipment:

📷 Cars, motorcycles, and bicycles
📷 Power tools, lawnmowers, and sports equipment


Keeping an updated visual record of your valuables can save you time, stress, and financial loss in the case of an emergency. Make it a habit to update your inventory every year!
