The recent wildfires in Pacific Palisades have left a trail of destruction, including the homes of several celebrities. One such victim is 'This Is Us' star Milo Ventimiglia, whose newly installed crib was among the items lost in the blaze. Ventimiglia and his pregnant wife had to evacuate with their dog as they watched their house being engulfed by flames.
Other stars, such as Mandy Moore and Mel Gibson, also faced the devastation caused by the wildfires. Moore narrowly escaped losing her home in the Eaton fire, while Gibson confirmed the complete loss of his residence. The fires have claimed at least 10 lives and forced over 150,000 people to evacuate.
Amidst the tragedy, there have been acts of generosity and support. The Walt Disney Co. pledged a significant $15 million donation to aid in relief efforts and help rebuild the affected communities. Disney CEO Bob Iger expressed pride in assisting the resilient Los Angeles community during this challenging time.
Efforts to support the victims of the wildfires are also being organized through a benefit concert scheduled for January 30 at the Intuit Dome. The event, spearheaded by music industry heavyweights, aims to raise funds for those impacted by the fires and to bolster preventive measures against future disasters.
The wildfires have brought immense loss and devastation to many, with homes reduced to rubble and cherished possessions destroyed. Despite the hardships faced by the affected individuals, there is a sense of unity and determination to rebuild and overcome this tragedy.
