Jamie Lee Curtis has donated $1 million to a relief fund for communities impacted by the ongoing wildfires in the Los Angeles area.
“As the fire still rages on and @calfire @losangelesfiredepartment and all the available first responders and agencies involved in fighting fire and saving lives are still hard at work and neighbors and friends are banding together to save each other, 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 wrote on Instagram. “I’m in communication with Governor Newsom and Mayor Bass and Senator Schiff as to where those funds need to be directed for the most impact.”
Curtis spoke about the devastating fires on “The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon” Wednesday night, calling the natural disaster “fucking gnarly” and “a really awful situation.”
