A group of gaming influencers/streamers in the Evolved talent management network have raised $97,000 in donations for victims of the Los Angeles fires.

Just as the fires have been quelled by rain (and now led to the risk of mudslides), the streamers have raised money for the Habitat for Humanity’s LA Recovery funds. Beyond overall rebuilding efforts, the streamers supported Habitat’s fund because of it’s immediate and practical efforts to provide cash to needy families struggling with relocation. A number of Los Angeles gaming people lost their homes in the fires.
