Organizers of last week’s massive FireAid benefit concert at Inglewood, CA’s Intuit Dome and Kia Forum revealed on Tuesday that the event’s fundraising total is expected to exceed a whopping $100 million. Funds generated from FireAid will support the Los Angeles-region’s immediate needs and long-term recovery from the recent wildfires.

The FireAid Grants Advisory Committee, composed of longtime Los Angeles-region philanthropic leaders with deep relationships in the non-profit community, have been working to identify key areas of need for maximum impact. Led by the Annenberg Foundation, the committee has been listening daily to affected communities, assessing local resource gaps to ensure aid reaches those most in need, and researching the handling of other fire disasters, such as those in Maui and Northern California. The first phase of grants are expected to be awarded by mid-February.

In addition to filling two major arenas simultaneously, the various FireAid livestreams brought together more than 50 million viewers across 28 streaming platforms and featured moving performances from more than 30 artists. The estimated amount raised includes ticket sales for both venues, sponsorships, merchandise sales, and donations from the public including generous private gifts from the Azoff family, the Eagles, Andrew Hauptman and Ellen Bronfman Hauptman, and U2. Operating costs were offset by the LA Clippers. Steve and Connie Ballmer also matched every pledge made during the broadcast and VOD viewing of FireAid while Live Nation served as the production partner.
