City of West Hollywood issued the following announcement on Oct. 4.
We've activated our #WeHoResponds program, following the Orange County oil spill on October 2, to encourage community contributions to local organizations that are in urgent need of support.
With more than 130,000 gallons leaked and traveling along the coastline, the spill leaves behind a trail of thick sludge devastating wildlife and ecological reserves.
West Hollywood’s core values include "Responsiveness to the Public and Responsibility for the Environment". The City has a deeply held commitment to protecting and improving natural and built environments. As such, the City is mindful about the important role that local governments and organizations play in mobilizing assistance for communities when disasters strike.
