LOS ANGELES - Californer -- FireAid donated $75,000 to California Strong, powered by the Southeast Ventura County YMCA (SEVC YMCA), to distribute to families affected by the Palisades and Eaton fires. Seventy-five fire victims who had previously filled out relief applications and were vetted received the funds.
The FireAid January 30 benefit concert in Inglewood provided $50 million in immediate relief assistance to more than 120 nonprofit organizations that distributed the funds to over 150,000 fire victims. The California Strong/SEVC YMCA donation is part of a second distribution phase that focuses on long-term recovery.
"People are still hurting and struggling to put their lives back together. It will take time and resources," says Ronnie Stone, president and CEO of the Southeast Ventura County YMCA. "SEVC YMCA is able to continue to do good work thanks to organizations like FireAid that support nonprofits like us."
