By Armando Tinoco Staff Writer
Mandy Moore is “kindly” telling trolls to “F off” after she shared a crowdfunding link to help her in-laws following the Eaton fire where they lost their home.
The This Is Us star shared a post on Instagram where she said her brother-in-law and sister-in-law had “lost their home and everything they own in the Eaton fire.”
“With their first baby on the way in a matter of weeks, they need our support now more than ever,” Moore shared on Instagram, inviting her followers to donate to their GoFundMe page, which had initially set a goal to raise $60,000.
It wasn’t long before Moore faced backlash on social media for sharing the link, with many asking why she couldn’t donate herself.

“Our buddy Matt started this go fund me and i’m sharing because people have asked how they can help them,” Moore continued. “We just lost most of our life in a fire too. Kindly F OFF. no one is forcing you to do anything.”

“We were able to park and walk up our street to bear witness to all the loss. Miraculously, the main part of our house is still standing. For now. It’s not livable but mostly intact,” Moore posted on Instagram.
She continued, “We love this community and will do everything we can to help rebuild and support. Thanks for everyone for checking on us and offering us help. Altadena strong.”
