SoCal Fire Fund Auctioning Off Lunch With Julia Roberts and ‘Only Murders in the Building’ Set Visit to Support Relief Efforts
The SoCal Fire Fund is auctioning off several star-studded experiences to support recovery and relief efforts following the devastating Los Angeles wildfires.
Among the auction items is a lunch date with Julia Roberts, an on-set visit to Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building and a White Lotus premiere experience, including a cast meet and greet.
The SoCal Fire Fund was launched by the CAA Foundation, the philanthropic arm of the Creative Artists Agency; CORE (Community Organized Relief Effort), the aid organization co-founded by Sean Penn and Ann Lee; and the Los Angeles Unified School District Education Foundation.
Organizers said recovery initiatives will aid students, school employees and families impacted by the wildfires that ravaged L.A. earlier this month. The fund will be administered by the Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF).

I want to do my part to help amplify their mission and rally support for the families who need it most,” Roberts wrote in a memo. “To do that, I’m inviting one of you (and a guest!) to join me for lunch! We’ll enjoy great food and conversation, and it’ll be a chance to spend some quality time together.”

After the fires initially broke out in the Palisades on Jan. 7, fanned by strong Santa Ana winds, blazes continued to erupt across Los Angeles County, including Altadena. While first responders have worked night and day to contain the flames, more than 12,000 homes, buildings and structures were destroyed in the fires’ paths, leaving many residents displaced. At least 25 people were also killed.
