The Patterson Foundation Gives $500,000 To Strengthen California Wildfire and Tibet

The Giving Coast

The Patterson Foundation is providing $500,000 to the Center for Disaster Philanthropy (CDP) to strengthen recovery from recent global disasters. 2025 began with multiple devastating natural disasters worldwide. In early January, a Santa Ana wind event struck Los Angeles County with winds up to 80mph. The winds combined with drought conditions and warmer-than-typical temperatures caused a massive wildfire starting in Pacific Palisades and subsequent fires in Lidia, Sunset, Eaton and Hurst. Of these, the Eaton and Palisades fires are two of the top five most destructive fires in California’s history. At least 28 people have died thus far as firefighters continue to battle to contain the wildfires throughout Los Angeles. To learn more about the Center for Disaster Philanthropy and to contribute to either its CDP California Wildfires Recovery Fund or its CDP Global Recovery Fund, visit disasterphilanthropy.org.
