    Michael Thatcher CNBC Palisades fires

    California Wildfire Relief Efforts with CNBC

    To support victims of the devastating Los Angeles wildfires, Michael Thatcher shares with CNBC a list of highly rated nonprofits already engaged in relief and recovery efforts on the ground vetted by Charity Navigator.

    Massive wildfires are devastating the Los Angeles area of Southern California. As of Thursday morning, at least five people were killed, more than 100,000 residents have been ordered to evacuate and nearly 2,000 homes and businesses were destroyed.

     

    Many people around the country, and world, want to help, whether by donating money or emergency supplies. However, there are already fundraising scams trying to capitalize on the crisis.

    To make sure your funds get into the right hands, third-party evaluator Charity Navigator compiled a list of highly rated nonprofits currently engaged in relief and recovery efforts in the Pacific Palisades and the surrounding areas — including support for first responders.
