Visit California, together with leaders from California’s travel industry, are encouraging anyone who can provide support to affected communities to check out their new landing page for recovery

“We are immensely thankful for the heroism of our first responders, and for everyone – across California and around the world – who has shown support for the state during this difficult time,” said Visit California President & CEO Caroline Beteta. “The Golden State’s unwavering spirit has been tested but not broken, in large thanks to the outpouring of California love.”

Those looking to show their support for California are being asked to use the hashtag, #CALove.
