Ways to Support CA Fire Victims

As we turn our thoughts and prayers to the thousands of people affected by devastating fires in the city of Los Angeles, the Diocese of Lafayette offers us some guidance on fiscal ways to support them. Numerous houses of worship, including Catholic parishes and schools, have been destroyed in the wildfires. The archdiocese has opened the doors of its parishes as a haven for those displaced by the wildfires and to provide care for the first responders.

Catholic Charities USA — the official domestic relief agency of the Catholic Church in the U.S. is accepting donations to its Los Angeles Wildfire Relief initiative, which can be directly accessed by this direct link or by the donate button on Catholic Charities USA home page of https://www.catholiccharitiesusa.org/.
The Archdiocese of Los Angeles has also created a dedicated relief fund in response to the fires, which can be accessed directly at this link or by the Give Today button on the Archdiocese page at https://lacatholics.org/california-fires.
