Orange County restaurants host all-day fundraiser to support L.A. wildfire relief
As Los Angeles County grapples with deadly wildfires, Orange County restaurants are lending a helping hand.
Haven Craft Kitchen + Bar, Provisions Deli and Bottle Shop and Chapman Crafted Beer in Orange will host all-day fundraisers on Thursday with 100% of proceeds benefitting the Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation and the American Red Cross, according to the Orange County Register.
“These funds will go directly toward equipping firefighters on the frontlines and supporting those who have been displaced or affected by the wildfires. Together, we can make a difference for our neighbors in L.A.,” the participating restaurants said on Instagram.
Diners are encouraged to make a reservation to dine at Haven Craft Kitchen + Bar. Provisions Deli and Bottle Shop and Chapman Crafted Beer welcome walk-ins on a first-come, first-served basis.
Thursday’s efforts follow a county-wide effort on Tuesday, during which more than 80 restaurants pledged to donate 20% of dining proceeds to the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank in support of their fire relief efforts.
Over 100,000 L.A. County residents have been displaced by the wildfires, which first ignited on Jan. 7. The wildfires have since destroyed neighborhoods in the Pacific Palisades, Pasadena, Altadena, and Sylmar area, and 25 people have died.
As of Wednesday morning, the Palisades Fire is 19% contained, and the Eaton Fire is 45% contained.
