Actor and film producer Leonardo DiCaprio has pledged a $1 million donation to support efforts combating the ongoing wildfires in Los Angeles.
“The Los Angeles wildfires are devastating our city,” the 50-year-old actor shared on Instagram Stories on Wednesday. “I am committing $1 million in partnership with @rewild’s Rapid Response Program to assist with both immediate needs and post-fire recovery.”
DiCaprio outlined the organizations that will benefit from his contribution, including the LA Fire Department Foundation, California Fire Foundation, World Central Kitchen, California Community Foundation, Pasadena Humane Society, and SoCal Fire Fund.
These groups are providing vital resources to first responders, firefighters, and the affected communities.
The Oscar-winning actor joins other celebrities who have donated to support those impacted by the catastrophic wildfires, which have destroyed thousands of homes, claimed at least 25 lives, and left nearly 30 people missing since they began on January 7.
