Several massive wildfires have wreaked unprecedented destruction in California
Blazes, including the Eaton and Palisades fires, have consumed over 60 square miles, destroyed thousands of homes, and forced tens of thousands of people to evacuate.
These infernos are the most destructive in L.A County history, razing entire neighborhoods. At least 24 people have lost their lives.
Local shelters report taking in hundreds of pets. Many are severely burned and need immediate medical attention as well as food. Shelters need our support to care for these pets until they can be reconnected with their owners.
Greater Good Charities’ Disaster Response team was on the ground in L.A. within hours of the fires' outbreak. Their response continues to evolve to meet the growing needs:
- Aid Distribution: The team established three warehouses across Southern California, allowing them to efficiently distribute food, emergency packs, and other survival supplies to communities in need.
- Pet Food Distribution: They have delivered more than 3 million pet meals to shelter partners, including Pasadena Humane, ensuring that pets are not forgotten.
- Animal Care: We are preparing to transport pets that were previously in shelters from overcrowded animal shelters to make room for displaced and injured animals. Our teams are also deploying cash grants, pharmaceuticals, and feed for traumatized animals, including horses who were evacuated, lost, or displaced due to the wildfires and to Pasadena Humane, which operates a veterinary hospital and ICU.
- Wildlife Support: Disaster response experts are assessing wildlife impacts across burn zones, ready to intervene with resources and support.
