Several major wildfires have been burning in the Los Angeles area since Tuesday, destroying homes and forcing thousands of residents to evacuate. At least five people have been killed, according to the Associated Press.
About 130,000 people have been put under evacuation orders, and the fires have consumed a total of about 42 square miles. The Palisades Fire is already the most destructive in Los Angeles history.
As the fires burn through the region, local organizations are mobilizing to help residents. The American Red Cross has opened an emergency shelter providing shelter, food, water, health, and emotional support services to those affected.
