TEENS 4 LA: Fire Relief Fund

Help rebuild lives and support students and families impacted by the Palisades and Eaton wildfires.

LA is hurting. As students who've watched our communities destroyed in the Palisades and Eaton fires, we felt helpless. Now we're taking action. Through our friends, family, and community partners, we've mobilized a network of support that spans from local neighborhoods to the global community.

Any Help Makes an Impact - Choose How to Show Up

Local Community: Bring physical donations to support dynamic disaster relief response. Currently open at Dunn School to students and faculty. Further locations TBA.

Global Community: Support through fiat or crypto donations. You can either specify your donation destination or allow funds to be split among our selected organizations

  • Another Awesome Day: "Our organization focuses on supporting youth mental health and wellbeing. We're proud to work alongside local teens who are leading relief efforts, organizing supply runs, and coordinating disaster relief donations on the ground. During this challenging period, we understand that young people may need extra support and care. Through our y3k platform and community partners, we provide free mental health and skill development resources to youth affected by the wildfires. We are working together with the global web3 community to ensure every young person has access to the help they need during this difficult time." - AAD Founders

Hey everyone,

A big thank you for your continued support! We're mobilizing students in neighboring communities and across the nation. In case you missed it, Aliyah shared his story on KEYT News, speaking live from Dunn School about what inspired Teens4LA. Check it out here: https://keyt.com/news/2025/01/14/los-olivos-teen-raised-10k-in-three-days-for-l-a-fire-relief/

We're also excited to share that Walk Good LA has been added as a recipient organization to our donation options on Pledge. Founded during the 2020 George Floyd protests, they've been a pillar of strength in LA communities through their all-ages yoga and wellness programs. They're now offering free community programs that teens, families, and individuals affected by the fires can access for support and healing. You can find their welcoming community space at 4019 W Pico Blvd or visit www.walkgoodla.org - parents and adults, please share this resource with those who might need it.

While media coverage has focused on celebrity homes, these fires have devastated many hardworking families, particularly in culturally diverse and predominantly Black and Latino communities like Altadena. Every dollar raised will help provide mental health and skill development resources and services for youth across LA. We're proud to support community anchors like Walk Good LA who understand these needs deeply. This crisis has no boundaries, and neither does our support. 💪

Join Aliyah and the Teens 4 LA crew this Friday at 8am PST on TimePieces and TimesforKids X spaces to learn more about our ongoing efforts and how you can help.

We're pleased to share that Teens 4 LA student leader Aliyah and supporting organizers recently met with leadership at UCLA Anderson School of Business, a pillar in Los Angeles, to coordinate comprehensive response efforts, while developing both immediate relief strategies and long-term support initiatives. A key priority of our long-term planning centers on mental health services for teens and students in impacted areas, recognizing the lasting emotional impact of this crisis on young people in our community. Stay tuned for specific opportunities to contribute to these vital programs as we work together to help our LA community recover and rebuild.

This collaboration builds upon our existing partnership with Y3K, which has been actively engaged with UCLA students through curated discussions featuring leaders in emerging tech, gaming, and blockchain gaming, and blockchain exploring the future of entertainment. You can access recaps of these informative panel discussions here. Together with Y3K, we look forward to strengthening our support of the Los Angeles community and expanding our impact through these meaningful partnerships.
