Shortly after a wildfire began burning in Los Angeles, volunteers from several local groups rallied to provide food, clothing and other aid, and organizers announced a new solidarity campaign to sustain recovery efforts.

Dani, a CCAC volunteer at the LA Regional Food Bank, said volunteers spent the day packaging food for distribution. Michael, a College Corps member, said teams were assembling care packages that “include donated clothes, toiletry items and self-care items.” Jasmine, a volunteer from UCLA, said her group focused on distributing food and clothing to people on site.

Doug, a CCAC member, said volunteers also helped direct people to recovery resources, including federal, state and local agencies: “We are helping mainly with crowd control, assisting people where to go for resources, whether it's FEMA or state or local agencies that can assist with various needs.” Sofia, from LA Works, described another effort: volunteers were making seed balls “with a mix of California native wildflowers” intended for areas affected by the wildfires.

Julian, a California Emergency Response Corps member, said he traveled to the site after hearing about the fires and praised the volunteers’ effort, saying, “To see these kids, that's inspiring,” and that he felt “so incredibly proud of how you have stepped up.” Another speaker launched a statewide appeal, identifying it as a new effort called “California Love California Strong” and urging Californians to “give your time, give your resources, give gratitude, and also give love and support to this community.”

Remarks and activity descriptions in the transcript indicate a mix of food- and clothing-distribution, package assembly, crowd-control assistance, and environmental restoration work (seed balls). The transcript did not specify exact volunteer counts, dollar amounts, or formal coordinating agency authority beyond the organizational affiliations cited by speakers.

Organizers said the campaign aims to sustain volunteer engagement and donations as recovery continues; the transcript did not specify campaign partners, funding sources, or a timeline for the initiative.
