Socialite Paris Hilton has pledged to donate $100,000 to support victims of the wildfires devastating Los Angeles. She will also match up to $100,000 from other contributors.
Hilton’s donation will be made through her nonprofit, 11:11 Media Impact, specifically to assist parents who have lost their homes and need a safe place for their children. Hilton herself is a mother.
Hilton recently returned to the charred remains of her Malibu home, where she had made many memories with her family. While she is grateful that her loved ones are safe, she understands the pain of losing a home and cherished possessions.
Hilton expressed her sympathy for all those affected by the wildfires and thanked the first responders who are risking their lives to contain the blazes.
The American Red Cross is actively providing aid to wildfire victims and is in urgent need of donations.
