Hollywood stars Halle Berry, Sharon Stone, and Michelle Pfeiffer have united to support victims of the devastating LA wildfires. Halle Berry, inspired by her Catwoman co-star Sharon Stone, announced she had donated her entire closet to displaced families who have lost everything.
According to USA Today, Halle shared her efforts in an Instagram video posted Friday, where she explained,
“I’m packing up my entire closet and heading over to the COOP! If you live in the Southern California area, I urge you to do the same. This is something we can do right now today to help all of the displaced families that are in need of the basics today! Thank you @sharonstone for your leadership. Love you Lady.”
Halle opened the video by quoting Margaret Mead:
“Never forget that a group of thoughtful, committed citizens can make a difference.”
She then showcased piles of donated items, including shoes, sweaters, socks, coats, blankets, and toys for children.

Meanwhile, Sharon Stone continues to lead relief efforts. She has donated to +COOP and uses her Instagram platform, with over four million followers, to share information on accessing support. In a video, Sharon thanked donors, saying:
“Donations are coming in so fast. We have amazing sunglasses, bedding, women’s coats, clothing, toiletries, hats, kids’ clothes.”
She added,
“This is what a group of women does in four hours, but the donations keep pouring in, which is amazing. Please come and shop if you were displaced from the fire.”
Sharon also appeared on NewsNation, revealing she had taken displaced families into her home to provide shelter.
As of Saturday, the wildfires have tragically claimed 11 lives and devastated neighborhoods across Southern California. Celebrities such as Cameron Mathison, Jhené Aiko, Miles Teller, Tina Knowles, Ricki Lake, Billy Crystal, Paris Hilton, Anna Faris, Melissa Rivers, and Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag are among those who have suffered home losses.
