Since the wildfires started, celebrities and entertainment
organizations have pledged millions to help those who have been
displaced or lost their homes, including a $2.5 million
contribution from Beyoncé to a newly launched LA Fire Relief
Fund created by her charitable foundation, BeyGOOD.
Last week, the Recording Academy and MusiCares launched the Los
Angeles Fire Relief Effort with a $1 million donation. Thanks to
additional contributions, they’ve already distributed $2 million
in emergency aid.
The 67th annual Grammy Awards will still take place Sunday, Feb.
2, at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles — though the Recording
Academy has refocused its aim to support relief efforts
following the devastating Los Angeles-area wildfires.
