    Arnold Schwarzenegger donates $1M to LA wildfire relief

    What's the story

    Hollywood icon and former California Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, has pledged $1 million toward the Los Angeles wildfire relief efforts.

    He announced his commitment via a social media post on X (formerly Twitter), adding that he would be splitting his donation between three organizations: LA Fire Department Foundation, California Fire Foundation, and Habitat for Humanity (Greater LA).

    "A lot of my fans have asked me how they can help LA. I'm going to lead the way," he wrote.

    Fundraising initiative

    Schwarzenegger unveiled 'LA Strong' T-shirt for additional support

    Along with his donation, Schwarzenegger has also started a fundraising campaign. He launched an "LA Strong" T-shirt, the sales proceeds of which will directly go to the organizations he is supporting.

    The shirt's design is inspired by a popular Los Angeles souvenir sold on the Venice boardwalk, with Schwarzenegger's image.

    "The shirt might look familiar - it's based on an LA classic they sell to tourists on the Venice boardwalk," he added.

    But I know you want to help. So I had my team design a shirt. 100% of the profits will go to those organizations. The shirt might look familiar - it’s based on an LA classic they sell to tourists on the Venice boardwalk, except I can use my image: https://t.co/RcIBqbkOnP

    Collective aid

    Other organizations join Schwarzenegger in wildfire relief efforts

    Schwarzenegger's donation is part of a larger collective effort to help those affected by the wildfires.

    MusiCares, the charitable arm of the Recording Academy, has raised $3.2 million for wildfire relief and given away $2.2 million to those in need.

    The organization offers initial disaster relief including financial assistance and grocery cards to people who have worked in music for at least three years or have six commercially released recordings.
