It’s been one year since destructive wildfires swept through Southern California, destroying hundreds of homes and upending lives across the region.
Thanks to the joint efforts of hundreds of volunteers, generous financial donors, and dedicated community partners, the Red Cross reached about 178,000 people with relief and recovery services, including over $51 million in financial assistance; served more than 188,500 meals and snacks; and provided nearly 21,000 overnight shelter stays.
Today, families are still rebuilding, and the people in these photos are just a few of those we were honored to support. From replacing basic essentials to helping older adults start over to comforting pet owners in our shelters, their recovery journey continues — and so does our commitment to helping them heal, rebuild and move forward.
