Stars are giving a helping hand to the damage of the Los Angeles (LA) bushfires.

The charity foundation BeyGOOD announced on the 12th (local time) that Beyoncé has donated $2.5 million (about 3.7 billion won) to support victims in the region.

The foundation said, "We run the LA Fire Relief Fund with donations," adding, "This fund is used to help churches and community centers that support families and people affected by wildfires in Altadena and Pasadena who have lost their homes."

As the L.A. wildfires continue, Hollywood stars and companies continue to donate and charity.

Hollywood actor Angelina Jolie, who served as a special envoy to the United Nations refugee agency in the past, is also traveling to the forest fire-affected area and participating in relief efforts, US entertainment media People reported on the 13th, citing sources. Six of his children are also said to be participating in volunteer activities.

Earlier, actor Jamie Lee Curtis said he would donate $1 million (about 1.47 billion won) for forest fire victims and Eva Longoria would donate $50,000 (about 73 million won) to help fire victims and recovery activities.

Actors Sharon Stone and Halley Berry donated clothes, shoes, and bags. The Walt Disney Company will donate 15 million dollars, while Paramount will donate 1 million dollars.

The Altadena and Pasadena areas are affected by the Eaton Wildfire, one of two major wildfires in L.A. County. The size of the fire is larger by wildfires in Pacific Palisades, West Coast. However, while most of the residents of the Pacific Palisades are wealthy people such as Hollywood stars, Altadena and Pasadena, which are inland in the east, are known to be inhabited by many ordinary people.
