Long after the national spotlight faded from Southern California’s devastating wildfires in early 2025, these communities and the people within them remain in a state of recovery. As fires burned in January, organizations like Direct Relief rushed in to help, and continue to help today. Amgen and the Amgen Foundation supported this effort through a donation of $10 million which went to wildfires relief efforts led by the California Community Foundation, the United Way of Greater Los Angeles, and Direct Relief. Headquartered in Thousand Oaks, California, Amgen and its employees have called Southern California its home for more than four decades and its connection to the community runs deep. As the road to recovery continues, we remain committed to helping these communities rebuild. ?? Read more here: https://lnkd.in/g66_NmWq
