2025 Los Angeles Fires Relief Efforts
Wildfires have erupted across the Los Angeles region, fueled by relentless winds and scorching temperatures, leaving a trail of devastation in their wake. The infernos have forced thousands to evacuate, destroyed homes, and strained emergency services, with smoke and ash blanketing much of Southern California. Communities are facing unprecedented challenges as the fires continue to spread, severely affecting air quality and infrastructure.
As the crisis intensifies, relief organizations are stepping in to provide essential support. ALAN (American Logistics Aid Network) is among those mobilizing, working to address critical supply chain and logistics gaps and ensure that aid reaches affected communities swiftly and efficiently and helping them take the first steps toward recovery.
