Communities in and around Pacific Palisades, Altadena, Pasadena and Sylmar are grappling with the devastation of the blazes, which collectively have scorched more than 35,000 acres and destroyed more than 1,000 homes, businesses and other buildings. Help those impacted by these fires:

PRAYER

- Keep impacted families in your thoughts and prayers.

FINANCIAL DONATIONS

- The Lagartijas Climbing Crú, a local BIPOC climbing club, has created a Google spreadsheet to connect fire victims with people who want to donate gear and dehydrated meals. You can sign up on the spreadsheet to lend or give gear including sleeping bags and sleeping pads. You can also donate clothes, fuel, and dehydrated meals.
