Santa Monica College (SMC) is holding a two-day Fire Support Resource Drive to aid students, employees, and members of the community affected by the recent catastrophic fires. The SMC Foundation will collect donations of food, clothing, hygiene products, baby supplies, blankets (any size), and other necessities to be distributed to people in need in Santa Monica, Pacific Palisades, Malibu, Brentwood, and Greater Los Angeles County. A list of needed items (and items that cannot be accepted) is posted at the SMC Foundation’s Disaster Support (smc.edu/disastersupport) webpage.
The SMC Foundation has also established the Santa Monica Community College Disaster Support Fund (smc.edu/disastersupport) to raise at least $250,000 to help provide SMC students, faculty, and staff with temporary housing, food, water, clothing, transportation, medical supplies, school materials, and emergency funding to support immediate needs.
A comprehensive list of government, nonprofit, and other disaster relief services and resources available in the community is posted at smc.edu/disasterrelief.
