From Ashes to Action: BuildBackPali.org Raises $300K to Save Palisades Small Businesses

Description

We continue to hear directly from the community, as residents impacted by the fires share powerful stories about loss, recovery, and the long road forward after the flames. 

The show then pivots to major national and local headlines, including how the U.S. was able to penetrate Venezuelan airspace undetected, and breaking legal news as Nick Reiner’s defense attorney, Alan Jackson, steps down from the case. 

Hope and action take center stage with an inspiring conversation about a grassroots effort born out of the Palisades fire. Windward School junior Mason Cohen, along with childhood friends Jake Yoon and Dylan Fullmer of Harvard-Westlake, launched a fundraising campaign that has already raised more than $300,000. Every dollar is going directly to help small local businesses reopen, starting with the first five businesses being surprised with rent-subsidy checks at a special event. Their mission is simple and powerful: Rebuild. Restore. Revive. Learn more at BuildBackPali.org. 

We wrap things up with a look at the Rams vs. Panthers matchup, as the Rams head into the game as double-digit favorites on the road.
