Los Angeles Fires
Highly rated charities providing relief and recovery to those impacted by fire in the Pacific Palisades and surrounding areas.
Southern California is currently battling a series of destructive wildfires across Los Angeles County, including the Palisades, Eaton, and Hurst Fires. Fueled by dry vegetation, unseasonably warm temperatures linked to broader climate change patterns, and strong Santa Ana winds, these wildfires have spread rapidly, forcing widespread evacuations, destroying homes, and threatening communities from the Santa Monica Mountains to the San Gabriel Valley. The scale and speed of these fires have created a challenging situation for residents and emergency responders, with firefighters working tirelessly to contain the blazes.
Amid the devastation, numerous nonprofit organizations are stepping in to provide crucial support. These groups are offering shelter to displaced families, distributing food and medical aid, supporting animal rescues, and assisting with wildfire recovery efforts. Their work is vital to helping affected communities recover and rebuild in the wake of these ongoing crises.
