Beyoncé has donated a large sum to support the communities tragically affected by the ongoing wildfires in Los Angeles.

On Sunday, Jan. 12, the singer’s BeyGOOD foundation announced via Instagram that she was giving $2.5 million toward an L.A. Fire Relief Fund started by her charity.

“Los Angeles we stand with you. 🫶🏽” the caption of the post read. “BeyGOOD is taking action by announcing the LA Fire Relief Fund with a donation of 2.5 million dollars.”

“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 caption continued.

She urged people to visit the BeyGOOD website to “show your support for the impacted families,” as well as to learn more about her public charity foundation, which she founded in 2013. 

The donation comes after the L.A. County Medical Examiner confirmed the death toll from the devastating wildfires had risen to 24 on Sunday evening.

Per the Medical Examiner, 16 of the people killed were in the Eaton fire zone, while eight were found around the Palisades area.

Los Angeles County Sheriff Robert Luna revealed in a news conference that at least 16 people have been reported missing since the wildfires began on Tuesday, Jan. 7, per The New York Times.

The Palisades fire alone has scorched more than 23,000 acres with 11% containment, the Los Angeles Fire Department stated.

Celebrities such as Tika Sumpter and Halle Berry have donated personal goods, while others have provided financial support amid the devastation. 

Despite losing her own Malibu home to the flames, Paris Hilton made a “personal contribution” of $100,000 and promised to match additional dollars raised to $100,000 more to assist others in need.

Eva Longoria became emotional in an Instagram video speaking about her decision to donate $50,000 to the organization This Is About Humanity to support people impacted by the fires.

“I don’t think it’s the time to analyze what went wrong,” Longoria said of the wildfires.

“We’ve got to get a hold of the situation right now, so everybody who’s out there helping and doing their part, thank you,” she added.
