Supporting our Los Angeles community

News and Events

Los Angeles is the heart of entertainment and storytelling and has an impact on culture all over the world. It's also where many YouTube creators, artists, partners and our employees call home. Like so many, we've been heartbroken by the devastation from the wildfires and want to do our part to support the community as it rebuilds.

Together with Google.org, YouTube and Google are contributing $15 million to organizations providing immediate relief in LA, including Emergency Network Los Angeles, American Red Cross, the Center for Disaster Philanthropy and the Institute for Nonprofit News. And Google is providing accurate and timely information to LA through products and services like Google Search, Google Maps and Waze.

When it's safe to reopen our offices in LA, we plan to offer YouTube production facilities to impacted creators and artists as they begin to recover and rebuild their businesses. In the coming months, we'll also host a number of events to bring the YouTube creative community together - making space to connect and share resources.

On the long road ahead, we'll continue to support recovery and rebuilding efforts alongside our partners across the industry. In moments like these, we see the power of communities coming together to support each other - and the strength and resilience of the YouTube community is like no other.
