Leonardo DiCaprio Donates $1 Million to Los Angeles Wildfire Relief

The actor's contribution supports urgent needs and recovery efforts through his conservation organization Re:wild.

Leonardo DiCaprio announced a $1 million donation to wildfire relief efforts in Los Angeles through his organization Re:wild's Rapid Response Program.
The funds will benefit six organizations, including the LA Fire Department Foundation, California Fire Foundation, and Pasadena Humane Society, to aid first responders and affected communities.
The Los Angeles wildfires, which began on January 7, 2025, have displaced thousands and resulted in at least 25 fatalities, making them the most destructive in the city's history.
DiCaprio's donation follows criticism for his use of a private jet during the fires, raising concerns about environmental impact.
Other celebrities and corporations, such as Beyoncé, Disney, and Google, have also made significant contributions to the relief and recovery efforts.
