Supporting LAFD Fire Station 35 in Los Feliz: A Community Fundraiser by Rooster Homes

"When we dug behind the scenes at LAFD Fire Station 35, we discovered a station in dire need of upgrades. So we decided to take action. Here's how our Los Feliz community is stepping up, and how you can help."

πŸ“Ί Watch: Inside Fire Station 35 & How You Can Help

Why This Matters to Los Feliz

Los Angeles' firefighters don't just respond to emergencies — they live in their stations for days at a time. That's especially true at LAFD Station 35, located at 1601 N Hillhurst Ave in the heart of Los Feliz. The men and women who protect our Los Feliz homes, Griffith Park hills, and surrounding neighborhoods deserve safe, functional living spaces.

During our visit and while filming this fundraiser video, the Rooster Homes team saw firsthand the areas most in need of support. Our footage documented several key concerns inside the Los Feliz fire station, including:

  • Ceilings showing water damage and deterioration
  • Broken or sealed windows limiting airflow and natural light
  • Aging air-conditioning systems struggling in Los Angeles heat
  • Outdated laundry facilities that can't fully remove toxins from firefighting gear
  • Worn flooring, lighting, and fixtures that make daily life uncomfortable for the crew

These aren't cosmetic issues — they directly affect the firefighters' health, rest, and readiness. Seeing these conditions firsthand is what motivated us to launch this Los Feliz community fundraiser.

  • πŸ‘¨‍πŸš’ Mission: To protect lives, property, and the environment through service, courage, and commitment

Station 35's crew serves one of Los Angeles' busiest and most diverse neighborhoods. Many firefighters spend multiple nights per shift living on-site in Los Feliz, making the quality of the station's living conditions essential to their well-being and ability to protect our community.


Our Los Feliz Fundraiser: Community in Action

At Rooster Homes, we believe that real estate is about community — and that includes giving back to those who protect Los Feliz and the greater Los Angeles area.

To raise awareness and funding, we created a short documentary video highlighting what we saw inside Station 35 and how the Los Feliz community can help. This video is part of our Rooster Homes Cares initiative, which supports local Los Angeles causes through service, awareness, and education.

In addition to our video campaign, we're hosting local Los Feliz events and donation drives designed to bring residents together and create a tangible impact. Every dollar raised will go directly toward improving the living and working conditions at Fire Station 35.

Firefighters at Station 35 are first on scene when emergencies happen in Los Feliz, Griffith Park, and surrounding Los Angeles neighborhoods. The least we can do is make sure their environment is safe, functional, and dignified.

Every act of generosity — whether it's a donation, a share, or a kind word — helps build momentum toward a stronger, more connected Los Feliz community.

REVIEWS

Claudia Chan

Helped me rent a Condo home in Playa del rey, Playa del rey, CA.

My best friend referred me to Sarah when my boyfriend and I were looking to relocate to California from New York City. Sarah is very friendly, responsive, and thoughtful. When we had our initial conversation about looking to rent, she was very transparent about taking the time to research which areas/neighborhoods that we would be interested in before seeing any of the listings. During our visit, she was available to show us some listings and I thought she really asked the right questions. She was also very on top of our requests like reaching out about pet deposit/fees and scheduling showings. She made us feel very taken care of too because we were new to renting and working with an agent. We did eventually find our home to rent with her help and she made sure to read through the rental agreement for any errors or mistakes. It was a smooth process and overall, we were very happy with our experience and highly recommend her!

Helped me rent a Apartment home in Alhambra, CA.

Sarah made apartment hunting so much fun and hassle-free! She was very responsive and supportive throughout the whole process. Sarah provides a wealth of knowledge in terms of comparative leasing comps, negotiating, and overall application progress. Lastly, I never met any other agent that emits as much genuineness and compassion as she. I highly recommend her as an agent for leasing or buying!

Janet Sau Sum Cho

Bought a Single Family home in 2022 in East central, Pasadena, CA.

Brandon is so positive, supportive, and responsive to any and all my needs in the entire process of looking and buying a new home. He is extremely patient, knowledgeable about the market and procedures, thoughtful, and made excellent recommendations every step of the way. Honestly, he went above and beyond my expectation! I feel very confident with Brandon. I appreciate that he helped me to analyze what I need together, and find the perfect place for my partner and I.
