John,

Southern Californians are grappling with horrific Palisades, Eaton, and Hurst wildfires. The damage from these fires is far-reaching — several individuals have died, thousands of people and their animals have been told to evacuate, and thousands of homes, businesses, places of worship, and schools have been destroyed.

First responders and firefighters are working tirelessly to save lives and contain these fires.

Right now, there are some incredible organizations on the ground supporting the efforts — including the Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation, United Way of Greater Los Angeles, and the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank. If you can spare, please split a direct donation to these organizations today:
