Drivers on the West Coast have a unique opportunity to contribute to Los Angeles wildfire relief efforts simply by filling up their gas tanks this week. Select gas stations across California, Oregon, and Washington have partnered with local organizations to donate a portion of their fuel sales to assist communities devastated by the recent wildfires.
How the Initiative Works
The program, organized by several regional fuel suppliers and nonprofit groups, aims to direct much-needed funds toward recovery and relief operations. Participating gas stations have pledged to donate up to 10 cents per gallon of gas sold during the campaign period, which runs through the end of the week.
“This is a simple way for drivers to make a difference,” said a spokesperson for the initiative. “Every gallon pumped brings us closer to helping families rebuild their lives.”
Funds raised will be allocated to organizations providing emergency housing, food assistance, and debris cleanup services. Specific beneficiaries include the California Community Foundation’s Wildfire Relief Fund and the Red Cross, both of which have been actively supporting wildfire victims.
Participating Locations
To make it easy for drivers to participate, a list of participating gas stations has been made available online. Stations displaying “Fuel for Relief” banners or signage are confirmed participants in the campaign. Drivers can also use a dedicated website or mobile app to locate the nearest participating station.
The Broader Impact
Wildfire recovery often requires extensive resources, from rebuilding infrastructure to addressing environmental damage. This initiative not only raises funds but also spreads awareness about the ongoing challenges faced by affected communities.
“It’s heartening to see how communities can rally together,” said an Oregon-based gas station owner involved in the program. “Every small effort adds up.”
How You Can Help
West Coast residents are encouraged to spread the word about the campaign by sharing information on social media and urging friends and family to participate. Every gallon counts in bringing relief to those who need it most.
