California Community Foundation is a 501(c)(3) focused on finding long-term, comprehensive solutions that address the vital issues concerning quality of life in Los Angeles County. Since 2003, the CCF Wildfire Recovery Fund has provided over $30 million to communities affected by disasters. CCF ensures that resources reach those most in need, leveraging partnerships with community-based organizations and government agencies while using data from CalFire and the CDC’s Social Vulnerability Index to prioritize underserved communities.For the LA County wildfires, CCF has activated its Wildfire Recovery Fund to complement immediate relief, addressing the long-term recovery needs of neighborhoods long after media attention has shifted away. The organization’s disaster and recovery efforts support an array of critical recovery services, including housing, case management, mental health, and medical care for displaced residents. It also aids in rebuilding essential infrastructure like emergency communication systems and offers financial disaster assistance, labor law education, and immigration services to low-wage workers and immigrant families.
