Three wildfires continue to burn in the Los Angeles region, according to Cal Fire. The Palisades and Eaton fires have scorched nearly 40,000 acres, destroying thousands of homes and forcing tens of thousands of evacuations. The fires are 27% and 65% contained, respectively, but authorities said earlier this week that the blazes had little growth.

They are firefighters and aid workers, chefs and booksellers—and they’re all on a mission to show up for their Los Angeles community.
