ECNETNews reports that a benefit concert aimed at assisting victims of the devastating California wildfires has been confirmed. The event, titled FireAid, is scheduled for Thursday, January 30 at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles. While the lineup of performers has yet to be revealed, all proceeds will benefit a nonprofit organization dedicated to “rebuilding infrastructure, supporting displaced families, and advancing fire prevention technologies and strategies to enhance LA’s readiness for fire emergencies.”
The concert has garnered support from prominent figures in the music industry. The ongoing wildfires have forced many musicians, including those from well-known bands, to evacuate their residences, with some seeking urgent assistance for housing and repair costs. Recently, efforts have been made to compile resources for those impacted, including a tracking list for donations aimed at music industry members affected by the fires. For the latest evacuation updates and assistance resources, residents are encouraged to consult local emergency services.
