Where's the $100 Million? Fire Victims Question Disaster Relief Funds
Following the devastating fires that ravaged Pacific Palisades and Eaton in January 2025, a benefit concert raised an impressive $100 million to aid affected residents. However, months later, many residents are expressing concern and frustration over the lack of information regarding the distribution of these funds. "They raised a hundred million dollars, and they haven't said where any of that money went," says Spencer Pratt, a local resident and social media influencer, in a recent video that has gone viral. This lack of transparency has left many struggling to rebuild their lives, questioning where the promised aid is. The situation highlights the critical need for clear communication and accountability in the handling of disaster relief funds. Local authorities have yet to issue a comprehensive statement addressing these concerns, leaving many residents feeling neglected and uncertain about the future.
