LA Archdiocese’s fire relief fund sees nationwide response
When the Archdiocese of Los Angeles set up the donation portal for the Wildfire Victims Emergency Relief Fund, organizers were hoping for a groundswell of local support.
They got it, in so many ways.
What they didn’t necessarily expect was the outpouring of support from parishes, schools, and religious organizations outside the area, ranging from Las Vegas, to Hawaii to Boston, and outside of the United States.
In amounts both big and small, donors across the country have sent in assistance to LA wildfire victims in the form of money, gift cards, clothing, toiletries, and handmade cards.
