Thousands of runners participate in fundraiser to help those affected by Eaton Fire

ALTADENA, Calif. (CNN, KYMA) - It's been nearly a year since the deadly Eaton Fire tore through Altadena, California, and on Sunday, thousands of runners came together for the first ever Altadena Forever Run.

The event raised at least $100,000, with the money helping families devastated by the fire, and many are trying to rebuild.

The fire destroyed 9,400 structures, damaged 1,000 others, and left at least 19 people dead.

Sunday's fundraiser will help support several relief efforts, including the Altadena Eaton Fire Relief Fund, which has raised more than half a million dollars.
