Support Bruin Wildfire Relief

Our hearts are heavy as we continue to witness the devastation caused by the fires throughout L.A. County. Many in the Bruin community have endured tremendous loss, uncertainty and displacement due to the current crisis affecting our region.

In response to the crisis, we’d like to share information about opportunities to support our affected staff, faculty and students during this challenging time.

Students who have been impacted by the fires are turning to UCLA’s Economic Crisis Response Center for urgent support, including emergency housing, meal vouchers and additional campus resources. If you would like to help, please consider making a gift to the Economic Crisis Fund, which directly aids students in need.

At the same time, UCLA is actively coordinating resources to assist those employed by UCLA in varying capacities including faculty, staff and researchers who have been impacted by this tragedy. We’ve established two disaster relief funds to help those impacted by unexpected financial expenses caused by the recent fires in Los Angeles. If you would like to support our employees, please make a gift to the UCLA Employee Relief Fund, or the UCLA Health Employee Relief Fund to assist those who work in patient care and David Geffen School of Medicine faculty and employees.

In times like these, connection is key. UCLA connects: We connect with one another, and with the broader community. We deeply appreciate the outpouring of concern and hope that you stay safe as we navigate this challenging period together.
