Spectrum announced today it has committed $2.5 million to assist in wildfire relief efforts in Southern California. Spectrum's commitment includes $500,000 in total cash contributions to be split between the Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation, American Red Cross Los Angeles Region, and the California Fire Foundation; $1 million committed to support small businesses in the Los Angeles area through the Spectrum Community Investment Loan Fund; and $1 million in in-kind public service announcement (PSA) airtime to support nonprofit organizations in their wildfire relief efforts. Spectrum has also established a microsite to facilitate employee donations to the American Red Cross.

The Spectrum Community Investment Loan Fund provides loans through community development financial institutions (CDFIs) to small businesses whose goods and services meet core needs of underserved communities. In addition, Spectrum will leverage its other existing community-based programs to support impacted communities, including Spectrum Community Center Assist which aims to improve the physical condition of community centers in underserved rural and urban communities, as well as support programs that provide job skills training.
