Rising to Meet the Needs of the Greater Los Angeles Wildfires

Disaster

The ongoing wildfires in Greater Los Angeles have caused catastrophic damage, displacing families, overwhelming shelters, and threatening wildlife and ecosystems. Over 40,000 acres have been scorched, more than 180,000 people evacuated, and at least 25 lives tragically lost. With winds driving the flames into new communities, officials are bracing for even greater destruction.

Greater Good Charities is responding to these unprecedented challenges with unwavering commitment.

Immediate Action in the Face of Disaster

Within hours of the fires’ outbreak, Greater Good Charities mobilized to deliver life-saving aid. Leveraging pre-staged emergency supplies in Southern California, we quickly deployed first aid kits, hygiene products, flashlights, blankets, and over 100,000 pet meals to affected areas.

Our teams are working tirelessly to reach those most in need. Aid and essential supplies are being distributed to vulnerable communities, pets, and displaced animals most in need.

A Multifaceted Response to a Complex Crisis

The impact of these wildfires extends far beyond burned structures. Entire communities are grappling with the aftermath, and Greater Good Charities is addressing the interconnected needs of people, pets, and wildlife:

  • Humanitarian Support: Emergency supplies are being delivered directly to underserved areas through trusted community networks. Our focus is on ensuring that vulnerable populations have the essentials they need to survive.

  • Animal Rescue and Care: We’re providing pharmaceuticals, feed, and essential supplies for displaced horses and other animals.

  • Supporting Pets: We are delivering food and essential supplies to pet shelters taking in lost, injured, and displaced pets. Additionally, adoptable pets previously located in overcrowded shelters are being transported to safer locations, creating space for those displaced by the fires and increasing the chances of reunification with families.

  • Wildlife Rehabilitation: Our disaster response teams are currently assessing the needs of wildlife impacted by the fires.

  • Efficient Logistics: With three strategically located warehouses in Southern California, our logistics teams are ensuring rapid, flexible delivery of aid even as conditions shift.
