SAG-AFTRA will donate $1 million to relieve members of the actors union who are struggling in the wake of the devastating wildfires that continue to ravage Los Angeles, the group announced on Saturday.
“As longtime residents of Los Angeles ourselves, we’ve personally been affected by the fires and feel deeply for others experiencing this tragedy,” SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher and National Executive Director & Chief Negotiator
Duncan Crabtree-Ireland said in a joint statement. “In addition to all of the first responders, we want to thank and recognize our broadcast journalist members who are out every day battling to bring this important news to the world.”
