Chris Stapleton & Morgane Stapleton’s Outlaw State of Kind Organization Donates $1 Million to L.A. Wildfire Relief

Chris Stapleton and Morgane Stapleton are coming to the aid of those impacted by the wildfires that have ravaged parts of the greater Los Angeles area of California earlier this month.

The couple’s charitable fund Outlaw State of Kind donated $1 million to aid organizations, both local and national, to support those who have impacted by the wildfires.

“Outlaw State of Kind has donated $1 million to support national and local organizations providing wildfire relief in Los Angeles. Join us in supporting however you can,” read a message on the organization’s Instagram page.

The organization’s website also listed several organizations where it is donating funds, including the American Red Cross, California Fire Relief, Los Angeles Regional Food Bank, MusiCares and the Pasadena Humane Society.

The Outlaw State of Kind charitable fund was founded in 2016 and is administered by the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee, supporting a variety of causes that Chris and Morgane Stapleton champion.

At the upcoming Grammy Awards, slated for Feb. 2 at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, Stapleton is nominated in categories including best country solo performance (for “It Takes a Woman”) and best country album (for Higher). While many other Grammy Week festivities have been canceled, the Grammys telecast has pivoted and will be used to raise additional funds for wildfire relief efforts.

After the wildfires that have ravaged parts of Los Angeles County this month, several music industry companies have stepped up to give aid and support. The wildfires erupted on Jan. 7 and quickly spread throughout the greater Los Angeles area. Deaths from the Los Angeles-area wildfires have risen to 29 people. The wildfires also ravaged entire communities, destroying and damaging thousands of structures, and engulfing numerous homes.
