Support for Los Angeles Residents Affected by Wildfires
Los Angeles is facing one of its most significant tragedies in recent history, with devastating wildfires ravaging the city. The latest reports indicate that the death toll has risen to 10, with over 130,000 people evacuated. The fires have already destroyed 8,100 hectares of land, drawing comparisons to the 1994 Northridge earthquake, which claimed 60 lives and damaged 87,000 homes.
Former Boxing Champion Offers Assistance
In response to the crisis, former world boxing champion Floyd Mayweather has announced plans to provide aid to families displaced by the fires through his real estate company, VADA Properties. Mayweather expressed his condolences to those affected by the tragedy on his Instagram account, stating, “My thoughts and prayers are with everyone in California during this difficult time.”
Mayweather’s assistance program, which includes relocation and essential supplies, aims to support those in need. While details of the plan are not yet specified, Mayweather has encouraged those displaced by the fires to reach out to his team at info@vadaproperties.com for help.
VADA Properties’ Real Estate Investment
VADA Properties, officially launched by Mayweather a few months ago, initially focused on boosting his real estate business in New York. Notably, the company invested $402 million in October to purchase 1,000 low-cost homes across 60 buildings in Upper Manhattan, marking the second-highest investment in the city’s real estate sector last year.
