To all those affected by the LA fires

Our hearts are with you. At After the Fire USA, we are here for you as 3rd responders, supporting you from day one until everyone is home. Below, you’ll find immediate resources we recommend to help you navigate this challenging time. You are not alone.

What can you do right now?

During this challenging time, there are critical ways you can help:

  • Evacuate Early. Please encourage everyone to evacuate during a warning, not when it becomes mandatory. Delaying evacuation puts both evacuees and first responders at significant risk.
  • Avoid Unrequested Donations. Only donate physical items if specifically requested. Unneeded donations can create logistical challenges and lead to a secondary disaster.
  • Conserve Water. Advise locals to conserve water. In several areas, water supplies have run out, leaving fire hydrants unusable. Using water to protect individual homes often exacerbates the problem, leading to greater losses for the entire community.
  • Share Accurate Information. Report disinformation and only share validated updates from official sources. Disinformation can spread confusion and harm during a crisis.
  • Focus on Support, Not Criticism. Please reserve criticisms and unfounded speculations for another time. Let’s avoid adding to the pain and suffering.
