$300K Raised to Restore LAUSD Classrooms After 2025 Wildfires
More than $300,000 has been raised to help restore classrooms at schools within the Los Angeles Unified School District that were impacted by last year’s devastating wildfires, according to county officials.
The LAUSD Education Foundation says the funding will support more than 275 classroom projects across a dozen campuses affected by the January 2025 wildfires.
Working alongside corporate donors, the funds will help replace furniture, seating, and other essential classroom supplies that were lost or damaged.
Organizers say donations from the SoCal Fire Fund, Amazon, and Disney Consumer Products helped make the restoration effort possible.
The fires caused widespread destruction, ultimately destroying around 3,000 structures and claiming the lives of 12 people. Officials say the classroom restoration effort is an important step in helping affected students and teachers rebuild and return to learning.

The holidays should be a time for joy, but they can also bring stress, loneliness and added pressure. 🎄 How do you protect your mental and physical health during the busy holiday season? Dr. Joseph Aquilina, Chief Medical Officer at DAP Health, shares practical advice on setting boundaries, managing holiday stress, navigating difficult family dynamics, eating and drinking mindfully, and making time for the people and activities that bring you joy. His biggest reminders? It’s OK to say no, give yourself permission to feel your feelings, and don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it. And as we head into 2027, it’s also a great time to check in on your health screenings and make sure your vaccines are up to date. If you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health crisis, call or text 988 for support. #DAPHealth #HolidayHealth #MentalHealthMatters #HolidayStress #DrJosephAquilina CoachellaValley PalmSprings NBCPalmSprings
