LA Wildfire Support & Resources
For those following the Los Angeles wildfires from afar, I want to share reliable, firsthand information and ways to help. As a resident living between the Palisades and Eaton Fire zones, I understand our community's immediate impact and challenges.
This resource list is for everyone – those directly affected seeking support, fellow Angelenos wanting to help, and anyone looking to contribute to recovery efforts. Whether you're local and feeling uncertain about venturing out (as I am), or watching from a distance, there are various ways to make a difference.
I've compiled this list from verified sources, including local emergency services and community organizations, to provide practical ways to help those experiencing loss and displacement from these fires.
Please keep checking as this list continues to grow as this will be an ongoing effort for years to come.
Anything you/we can do will make a difference. The people and animals of Los Angeles needs us now more than ever. ♥️🙏
