As devastating wildfires spread across Los Angeles County forcing tens of thousands to evacuate, we stand united with our Entreprenista community and all those affected in the area. We have many members of our community and founder friends who have been impacted and lost homes. Now is the time for us all to come together to support each other.
With over 7,500 emergency personnel on the ground battling multiple fires, we recognize the critical importance of coming together to support those in need.
Here are some resources for those impacted:
Founders Who Need Your Support:
Kristin Olszewski, founder of Nomadica, lost her home in the fire. You can donate to her GoFundMe here.
