LA Check In Livestream Benefit for Wildfire Relief

The Annenberg Foundation, alongside will.i.am and D-Nice, is hosting a livestream benefit titled 'LA CHECK IN' on January 16 at 6 PM PT to support victims of the recent devastating wildfires in Los Angeles. This event, modeled after D-Nice’s successful 'Club Quarantine,' will feature uplifting DJ sets, updates on resources for fire victims, and appearances by celebrity guests and local heroes. The livestream aims to provide a sense of community and encourage donations for recovery efforts, focusing on evacuees and first responders. Will.i.am emphasized the urgent need for support, noting many families have lost everything. The benefit will also spotlight nonprofits that offer assistance to impacted populations. As the fires have resulted in significant destruction, with at least 25 fatalities and over 105,000 evacuation orders issued, the event is a vital response to a pressing crisis.
