We are absolutely heartbroken for our city. So many families have lost everything, and the devastation continues to spread. Yet, the strength of our community coming together is truly inspiring. We are deeply grateful for our firefighters, who continue to work tirelessly to keep us safe.
This week, we’re sharing helpful resources for families across Los Angeles who are experiencing hardship. If you have additional resources or information to share, please reach out, our inbox and DMs are open. We are in this together.
