 We are excited to share that Impact LA has officially wrapped up our fire relief distribution efforts in Pasadena and returned to our home base in Los Angeles at our new warehouse facility. We are incredibly grateful for the opportunity to serve evacuees, first responders, and families affected by the Eaton Fires, and for the amazing community support we received while in Pasadena.

Now based in Los Angeles, we will continue our mission to provide critical resources—food, hygiene products, baby supplies, clothing, and other essentials—to those in need every Friday. Though our location has changed, our commitment remains the same: standing with and serving our community in times of crisis and beyond.
