How to Help Victims of the Los Angeles Wildfires

The wildfires which have ravaged Los Angeles County are difficult to comprehend. More than 40,000 acres have been burned, over 12,000 structures destroyed, 150,000 residents have been displaced and at least 25 people have tragically lost their lives.

These statistics – while staggering – only start to put into perspective how destructive these wildfires have been for Southern California. Everyone in the greater Los Angeles area has been affected, and it will take years for many of them to fully recover.
