“The Black community in Altadena shares a rich, historic, and resilient legacy, one spanning multiple generations. They paved a way for themselves through the Great Migration, segregation, redlining, and more to establish a community where their families could build, grow, and celebrate life together. Now, generations later they face an unimaginable tragedy brought on by the LA county wildfires,” the fundraiser reads.

Flavor Flav shared a video on Instagram encouraging the community to come together to help in any way you can.

“Come on y’all, let’s make L.A. strong…And let’s help those in need. Come join your boy Flavor on this campaign,” he added.
