California Wildfires

Volunteer and Emergency Information

"Our thoughts and prayers are with the more than 300,000 families who have been forced to flee their homes to escape the wildfires spreading across southern California. Those affected by this tragedy should take comfort in the fact that their fellow Americans are standing with them and will do whatever it takes to fight the fires and rebuild the homes and businesses that were destroyed."

• American Red Cross - The Red Cross notes that a financial contribution -- rather than sending supplies -- is the best way to help. Learn more and contribute.
