Beyoncé’s BeyGood Foundation Donates $2.5 Million to L.A. Fire Relief Fund to Assist Families

Beyoncé's BeyGOOD Foundation has pledged $2.5 Million to families impacted by the historic Los Angeles wildfires.

In an Instagram post on Sunday night (Jan. 12), the foundation announced the pledge to the L.A. Fire Relief Fund aimed at helping impacted Los Angelenos in the midst of one of the most destructive wildfires in the state’s history. The out-of-control fires that have been whipped up by near-hurricane force Santa Ana winds over the past week, scorching more than 38,000 acres so far (roughly 60 square miles) and destroying more than 12,000 homes and buildings while displacing nearly 200,000 and killing 24 to date, according to CNN. A number of musicians and entertainment industry figures have spoken about the loss of their homes — including Mandy Moore, Paris Hilton, Beyoncé’s mother, Tina Knowles, Jhené Aiko, Paris Hilton, songwriter Diane Warren, The Hills stars Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag and many more — even as others step up to offer help.
