Our hearts go out to all those affected by the recent fires devastating many of our Southern California communities. We know many of you have been impacted, losing homes, facing evacuation, and causing significant hardships for you and your families. Here at Stater Bros., we understand the devastation these events cause, and we’re committed to helping those in need in our communities.

Supporting Evacuation Shelters.

To best support those who are affected by the Line, Bridge and Airport Fires, Stater Bros. Charities has donated $25,000 in disaster relief funds to the American Red Cross to support seven evacuation shelters across Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino, and Riverside Counties. The Red Cross and their partners, such as The Salvation Army, have shelters open for the Airport Fire in Orange and Riverside Counties, the Line Fire in San Bernardino County, and the Bridge Fire in San Bernardino and Los Angeles Counties, and are providing safe refuge, snacks, drinks, medical needs and financial assistance for people impacted by these fires.

Helping Our Furry Friends

We understand the stress of evacuations extends to our beloved pets. In partnership with P&G, Stater Bros. Charities is donating $5,000 to The Humane Society of San Bernardino Valley to assist with caring for pets separated from their families during the Line and Bridge Fires. In addition, Stater Bros. Charities is making a $2,500 donation to the Devore Animal Shelter for their continued support.

Stronger Together

These donations are made possible thanks to the support of our generous and valued customers. Throughout the year, loose change is collected at the check stands at all Stater Bros. locations. Stater Bros. Charities proudly stewards these funds on behalf of our customers by investing in local nonprofits providing hands-on support. When you give local, it stays local. These funds are at work in Southern California communities helping to provide compassionate care for those in need during this crisis.

We encourage everyone to check in on their neighbors and offer any assistance they can. Together, we can overcome these challenges and rebuild our communities stronger than ever. Remember, Community First!
