Dear Friends of the Corps,

The devastation caused by the wildfires is heartbreaking. This is an unprecedented time for Angelenos, and our hearts go out to everyone impacted by these catastrophic fires. As the fires continue to spread across Los Angeles, we are profoundly grateful to the firefighters and first responders who continue to risk their lives to keep our communities safe.
