Sat Jan 11 04:10:00 UTC 2025: ## LA Sports Teams Unite to Aid Wildfire Victims with “LA Strong” Merchandise Drive
**Los Angeles, CA** – In the wake of devastating wildfires sweeping through the Los Angeles area, the city’s sports community is rallying to support those affected. Major League Baseball (MLB), other major professional sports leagues, and 15 Los Angeles-based sports organizations have teamed up with Fanatics to launch an “LA Strong” merchandise line.
The initiative features t-shirts and will expand to include other items in the coming days. Crucially, all proceeds from the sale of “LA Strong” merchandise will be donated directly to the American Red Cross and the Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation. Neither Fanatics nor the participating leagues and teams will receive any profit.
The American Red Cross will use the funds to aid wildfire victims, while the Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation will utilize the donations to provide essential equipment and support to first responders battling the blazes.
“LA Strong” merchandise is currently available for purchase on Fanatics.com, MLBShop.com, and the online stores of participating teams, including the Dodgers and Angels. Further team participation details are expected to be announced shortly. This collaborative effort showcases the sports world’s commitment to aiding the Los Angeles community during this time of crisis.
