• LA Fire Recovery

    Lutheran Social Services of Southern California (LSSSC) is directly supporting the recovery efforts of the devastating LA-area fires.

    Over 100,000 residents were displaced and many more lost their possessions and resources to the disaster. We are working closely with our community partners ensuring they are equipped to provide support to our neighbors who were impacted.

    We greatly appreciate the generosity of our donors to heed the call for the ongoing recovery.
