This month’s collection goes to California Community Foundation (CCF) Wildlife Recovery Fund. The wildfires in LA County have claimed at least 29 lives, destroyed thousands of homes and businesses, and displaced more than 180,000 people. CCF has a long history of making a direct and meaningful impact on individuals and families in need, ensuring that support reaches those most affected. Since 2003, the CCF Wildfire Recovery Fund has provided over $30 million to communities affected by disasters. During the COVID-19 pandemic, CCF also launched its COVID Relief Fund, offering critical assistance to aging populations, single parents, immigrants, and others by covering essential needs like rent and utility costs and providing vaccines to individuals facing barriers to care, including the unhoused and those with language access challenges.
