As Angelenos reel from the devastating wildfires that destroyed thousands of homes and businesses and killed at least 29 people, an LA-based nonprofit is handing out cash payments of as much as $5,000 to provide fast, unrestricted help to some of those impacted.
The Change Reaction, a philanthropic nonprofit founded by real estate investor Greg Perlman and his wife Jodi, has distributed checks to 3,000 people across LA so far to help them meet immediate needs in one of the most expensive cities in the United States.
