California wildfires have become an all-too-familiar tragedy, devastating lives and landscapes alike. Each year, these catastrophic events grow in intensity, leaving countless families displaced and struggling to recover. For many, the heartbreak is compounded by the harsh reality that their homes, their safe havens, were not insured—leaving them with no safety net to rebuild their lives.

The Insurance Crisis
The wildfire crisis is not just about the flames; it's also about what happens after the smoke clears. In recent years, many insurance companies have canceled home insurance policies in high-risk areas, citing the growing frequency and severity of wildfires. This leaves homeowners in an impossible position—unable to secure affordable insurance and left to bear the full cost of rebuilding should disaster strike.
The result? Families who have lost everything are now facing the monumental task of starting over with little to no financial support. For these families, the dream of rebuilding can feel impossibly far away.
Meeting the Immediate Needs
Right now, thousands of displaced individuals are in desperate need of basic necessities: food, clothing, temporary shelter, and medical supplies. The immediate aftermath of a wildfire is a chaotic and emotional time, and meeting these basic needs is the first step toward recovery.
The Long Road to Rebuilding
Beyond the immediate crisis, the journey to rebuild is long and arduous. Without insurance, many families are left to rely on their savings, community support, and the generosity of strangers. The costs of reconstruction—materials, labor, permits—add up quickly. This is why Salty Life Foundation is stepping in to help bridge the gap.
