Mark your calendars for an online auction to raise funds for wildfire relief in California.
Publishers Weekly reports that #kidlit authors, Charlotte Offsay and Caroline L. Perry organized this fundraiser and money earned will go to charities including the California Community Foundation’s Wildfire Relief Fund, L.A. Regional Food Bank, L.A. Fire Department Foundation, and Animal Wellness Foundation Fire Relief Fund.
The Kidlit for Los Angeles team writes:
“We are a group of kidlit creators who have been heartbroken by the devastating scenes in Los Angeles. Many of us are proud Angelenos, with friends and loved ones who have suffered crushing losses.
We have channeled our sadness into action, and for the past few days we’ve been hard at work setting up the Kidlit For Los Angeles fundraising initiative.
We are looking to help raise desperately-needed funds for wildfire relief efforts in the many LA communities that have been impacted through an auction taking place January 20th (9am Pacific Standard Time) through January 26th (9pm PST).
Please follow this page, share @kidlitforlosangeles (https://www.instagram.com/kidlitforlosangeles/) handle, and stay tuned for more details! Thank you for your support.”
