As wildfires continue to devastate LA, the outpouring of support has been incredible.... but with so many opportunities to donate, it can feel overwhelming to know where to start. I've found it's been helpful to track some resources that are actively curating where you can donate -- for example, Substacker Rachel Davies is live updating links to GoFundMe campaigns by % completion, while AFROPUNK Worldwide LLC and Latinx Therapists Action Network are spotlighting Black and Latino communities most impacted. These efforts are making a real difference. Take a look and see how you can help. 🤍 (If you know of any other go-to resources, drop them in the comments. We’re keeping this list updated on the M.T. Deco substack and would love your input to make it even more helpful.) ----------- -GoFundMe’s California Wildfires Hub lists verified fundraisers for people affected by the recent wildfires in Los Angeles County: https://lnkd.in/gR_nc2h2 -Journalist Rachel Davies is compiling GoFundMe campaigns who have raised less than 30% of their goals on her Substack, Personal Space: https://lnkd.in/gXGd2Sqz ...
