“Our hearts go out to the thousands upon thousands of people affected by the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles,” Yakir Gola, Gopuff co-founder and co-CEO, said in a statement. “We are extremely grateful for the 24/7 efforts of first responders to keep our communities safe and for the tireless efforts of our team leaders to support our staff in the area.
“To do our part to support first responders and everyone affected locally, we have partnered with Tom Brady to provide $250,000 worth of water to those in the LA area and will continue to monitor the situation and support , as far as we can.”

California authorities have confirmed a new death toll of 16 as wildfires continued to rage around Los Angeles on Sunday. Thousands have lost their homes as first responders continue to try to bring the flames under control.
Gov. Gavin Newsom has invited President-elect Donald Trump to visit California amid wildfires and budget battles. The governor has faced criticism for approving a budget that cut $100 million in firefighting and fire prevention.
