Bennd's Commitment to LA Fire Relief

Hi, I’m Heather Parkin, founder of Bennd. Our hearts are breaking for the countless families and individuals affected by the devastating LA fires. As members of this vibrant and resilient Los Angeles community, we feel called to help those grappling with unimaginable loss and destruction.

Through this fundraiser, we’re committing to supporting a new family, shelter, or firehouse every month, ensuring that the funds raised go directly to those in need, helping them recover and rebuild their lives. Along with the funds raised here, Bennd will also be donating $5 from every sale made in 2025 to further support these efforts.

In March and April, we are combining our efforts to make an even bigger impact for The Best Friends Animal Society. A leading organization dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming animals affected by devastating wildfires.

Wildfires have become an increasingly pressing crisis, displacing not just families but also thousands of animals in need of rescue and care. Best Friends Animal Society provides emergency rescue, medical care, and safe refuge for animals affected by these disasters. Their recent efforts in response to the Los Angeles wildfires have been nothing short of heroic and have been critical in saving and protecting animals from the devastating impact of these blazes.

Every contribution helps provide vital resources, shelter, and care for animals in crisis. Together, we can extend our collective impact and ensure these innocent creatures receive the love and support they deserve.

We’re reaching out to you—our incredible community—to help spread love, hope, and relief. Every contribution, big or small, makes a difference. If you know of a family or shelter in urgent need, please DM us so we can include them in our efforts.

To everyone impacted by this disaster, please know you are in our thoughts and prayers. We’re sending you all the love, light, and protection we can during this challenging time. Together, we can make a difference.

With gratitude,

Heather
