The Center for Disaster Philanthropy’s California Wildfires Recovery Fund supports communities across the state as they work to rebuild and recover from wildfires.
Since its inception, CDP has awarded grants to nonprofits and community groups throughout California to help families and communities recover through equitable grantmaking that prioritizes medium- to long-term recovery.
Communities affected by wildfires face a long road to recovery. As these fires can happen at any time and their severity intensifies, support before and after wildfires can better position communities to prepare for and respond to future fires while enabling them to recover stronger and thrive.
To effectively address the growing wildfire threat in California, our team works directly with local nonprofits to identify specific needs and gaps in funding. We consult with many in-state partners, such as the Governor’s Office of Emergency Service (Cal OES) and other agencies, to assess the long-term needs of affected communities and build collaborative partnerships.
