As wildfires continue to spread throughout the greater Los Angeles area, H‑E‑B has mobilized to provide aid that will support residents and nonprofits responding in impacted communities, including a donation of $1 million and truckloads of supplies.
Since the fires began, H-E-B has sought ways to help with critical outreach. From Jan. 13-17, H-E-B sent six trucks full of needed essentials – food, hygiene kits, masks, water and other supplies – to support the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank, which is part of the Feeding America network.
