Palisades Fire & Disaster Relief

Crucial Resources for Malibu and the Surrounding Areas

If you are told to evacuate please do so immediately.
Leave no one behind - no pets, no neighbors, no livestock. If they breathe, bring them!


This is a devastating and scary time right now for those of us living in and around the LA fires. We have and will continue to collect and provide resources for relief from these current events. Remember to take care of each other, help those in need, and don't leave your pets behind in an evacuation.

AT&T has partnered with Information Technology Disaster Resource Center (ITDRC) to develop and deploy a Mobile Connectivity Center (MCC).

ITDRC is a national disaster recovery nonprofit. This 48-foot trailer is equipped with devices and wireless internet connectivity. With 16 workstations, room for 20 people, air conditioning and heating. The MCC is deployed and accessible at Malibu Bluffs Park (24250 Pacific Coast Highway) daily depending on demand.

The Boys & Girls Club of Malibu Disaster Relief Services is the Official Partner for the City of Malibu Relief's Efforts.

The BGCM needs monetary donations so they can provide emergency grants to those in need. If you are one of the lucky ones, please consider donating to help those who have not been as fortunate.
The BGCM Disaster Relief Center (formerly Third Space at Cross Creek) is accepting NEW items only from brands and corporations. No used or gently used items.
Emergency Counseling Services will be available through the BGCM Wellness Center. If you lost your home or business in the fire and live in the community, you can receive relief here.
