Beyonce’s BeyGood Foundation Donates $2.5 Million to L.A. Fire Relief Efforts

The star’s BeyGood foundation shared via Instagram on Sunday, January 12, that it is making a $2.5 million donation to a newly established L.A. Fire Relief Fund.
“Los Angeles we stand with you. 🫶🏽,” the post began.
“The fund is earmarked to aid families in the Altadena/Pasadena area who lost their homes, and to churches and community centers to address the immediate needs of those affected by the wildfires,” the non-profit organization said.
“To show your support for the impacted families and to learn more about BeyGOOD’s mission, please visit https://beygood.org,” the post added.
Wildfires spurred by Santa Ana wind gusts have displaced many Los Angeles residents and ravaged homes belonging to celebrities since they began spreading on Tuesday, January 7. Stars including Paris Hilton, Billy Crystal and Anna Faris lost their homes.

“My family is donating $1 million today to the relief efforts,” Curtis, 66, shared in a Thursday, January 9, Instagram post. “We are in contact with Governor [Gavin] Newsom, Mayor [Karen] Bass, and Senator [Adam] Schiff and I will post often about where you can send needed resources to reputable agencies.”
Curtis shared a similar message in the post’s caption, writing: “My husband and I and our children have pledged $1 million from our Family Foundation to start a fund of support for our great city and state and the great people who live and love there.” (Curtis shares daughters Annie, 34, and Ruby, 25, with her husband, Christopher Guest.)

Curtis’ donation comes one day after she got emotional discussing the wildfires during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. “I’m literally just about to cry,” she said at the beginning of her Wednesday, January 8, interview.
“As you know, where I live is on fire right now. Literally, the entire city of the Pacific Palisades is burning,” she continued. “I flew here last night. I was on the plane, started getting texts and it’s f—ing gnarly, you guys. It’s just a catastrophe in Southern California. Obviously, there have been horrific fires in many places [but] this is literally where I live.”
