Fire Emergency Resources

Like many of you, our team has been trying to wrap our heads around the devastation that has occurred and continues in Los Angeles due to the wildfires. If you have been impacted by recent events or would like to help those who have been affected by the fire emergency in Los Angeles, we have a list of resources available below.

We hope you and your loved ones are safe and healthy. We'll get through this together.

If you’re seeking a safe place:

The WGF Library is here for you. Our normal hours are Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday from 11am to 6pm and Thursday from 11am to 8pm. If you plan to visit, please make an appointment at this link. 

If you need food, supplies, shelter, financial support, mental health resources, or more:

Our friends at Humanitas have put together a comprehensive resource sheet for your aid. You can also check out the California State Recovery Resources for Wildfire Survivors page for additional aid. If you’re a WGA member, WGAW Good and Welfare Emergency Assistance Loans are available.

If you’re looking for ways to help those affected by the fires:

The Writers Guild Member Fund provides immediate help to Writers Guild members who have lost their home or been displaced by the Southern California wildfires.

Humanitas is also hosting a running list of fundraisers/GoFundMe links to help writers who lost their homes. We’ve also launched a Veterans Writing Project Community Fundraiser for participants, alumni, mentors, and volunteers who have been impacted.

Additional ways to help those in need can be found here.
