Paris Hilton Launches Emergency Fund

Paris Hilton is stepping up to help those impacted by the devastating Los Angeles wildfires.

On Friday (Jan. 10), the 43-year-old Simple Life alum announced on social media that she is launching an emergency fund through her nonprofit 11:11 Media Impact to support families who have lost their homes in the fires.

“My heart is with everyone impacted by the devastating fires here in LA,” Hilton wrote on Instagram. “While I’ve lost my Malibu home, my thoughts are with the countless families who have lost so much more — their homes, cherished keepsakes, the communities they loved, and their sense of stability.”

The singer and entrepreneur added, “As a mom, I can’t imagine the pain and fear of not having a safe place for your babies.”

She went on to announce that she is personally contributing $100,000 to the fund and will match additional donations up to $100,000. “I’m asking others to join me in doing our part to support these families,” she wrote.
