Supporting LA Fires

Updated 1/30/25

We have collected over 50 boxes of toiletries, food, and masks and 10 bags of clothes/shoes. Items went to multiple organizations including It’s Bigger than Us, Heritage Clinic, and Chinatown Services Center. Some items were also provided directly to families.

As so many of us who are devastated by the LA fires, we wanted to be able to gather supplies that people will need if they were evacuated or lost their home in the fires. Based on what groups in LA are specifically asking for, we are collecting the following items through 1/19/25:

• New toiletries (toothpaste, shampoo, feminine products, toothbrushes, deodorant, etc.)
• New N95 masks (no fabric masks please)
• Non-perishable foods- cans, boxed foods (please check expiration date)

We cannot take items not on the above list.

Check out the Mutual Aid LA Network google doc that may have other ways to help. There are other local drop off locations. Check our Instagram (@peninsulabookcollaboration) for locations.

Thank you so much for the outpouring of support already.
