The nonprofit organization has provided just over $3 million in direct assistance.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — For families who lost everything in L.A. wildfires, direct cash assistance provides an immediate lifeline and the freedom to use the money in a way that best meets their needs.

By the time fire survivors Kate Sullivan and her husband found a steady place to live in early February, they were exhausted.

They had already lived in five different places – and in five different neighborhoods – since evacuating a month earlier. There was the pullout sofa in a friend’s garage in Woodland Hills and a blur of short-term rentals in Valley Village, Alhambra, Pasadena and Fairfax.

Both retired, they were running short on cash. They hadn’t received any insurance money on their underinsured home in Altadena that was destroyed by the Eaton fire. After so many moves and so much uncertainty, they felt “totally overwhelmed,” Sullivan said.

Their Los Feliz rental house came with just a bed and kitchen table. Besides that, the place went unfurnished for three months.

“I was in a mental state where I was just in shock,” Sullivan recalled. “I didn’t want to buy anything and I just couldn’t believe everything was really gone. I was just kind of shut down. So it took time to realize all of that’s gone and we need some things.”

In May, she stopped by the Altadena Disaster Recovery Center where fire survivors could receive services and apply for disaster aid. That’s when she saw the table of volunteers and staff members from Community Organized Relief Effort (CORE) who were set up in the back room.

CORE was on the front lines of fire relief efforts, rapidly delivering cash assistance to several thousand L.A. wildfire survivor households. So far, the nonprofit organization has provided just over $3 million in direct assistance.

CORE received a grant from the California Community Foundation’s Wildfire Recovery Fund , which has awarded over $30 million to more than 200 nonprofit organizations in L.A. County. More than a dozen other CCF wildfire fund grantees have provided direct relief to fire survivors.

After a quick vetting process, Sullivan received a prepaid ATM card on the spot, and immediately cashed it at the nearest Vallarta Supermarket, which didn’t deduct any fees, she said.

As soon as she got home, she went on Facebook Marketplace and found used dining chairs and some lamps. Those items filled a void in their house and provided a spark that led them to seek donated furniture to fill out the rest of their house.

“CORE helped our family get back on our feet,” she said. “We were really in a tight spot … we didn’t have a lot of funds coming in and they were there right at the right time.”

In the initial relief phase, CORE gave an average of $760 per person in direct cash to meet the urgent needs of fire survivors, totaling $2.4 million.

The effort demonstrates how philanthropic support can deliver fast, dignified aid and sustain recovery as families work to rebuild, said Tracy Reines, CORE’s disaster response lead for the L.A. wildfires.

“Being able to give folks some element of autonomy in a way that works for them is really important,” Reines said.

The nonprofit – founded after the 2010 Haiti earthquake by Sean Penn and Ann Lee – is a global humanitarian organization that has provided relief to vulnerable people, including those affected by conflicts in Ukraine and Sudan and also hurricane-impacted areas in North Carolina.

Cash assistance has long been a key part of the organization’s relief work. CORE’s experience from prior relief efforts meant that its leaders were prepared to provide relief almost immediately, Reines said. Also key is having grants provided by philanthropic groups like CCF that enabled it to quickly identify the greatest needs during the crisis, she said.

“To have flexible resources so that we can do a cash program right out of the gate is a game changer for everyone involved,” Reines said.

Now in the second phase, CORE’s cash assistance program is focused on supporting some of the most vulnerable families – dozens of households from West Altadena impacted by the fire – who are struggling to pay for housing. Those families will receive an average of $7,500 over three months, totaling $637,000.

“It will certainly not get people over the incredible challenges they face, but it’s something that we’re really proud of,” Reines said.

Altadena fire survivor Alphonso Browne, 66, met the CORE team at the Pasadena Convention Center shelter where he was staying after the Eaton fire destroyed the home where he lived and raised his children for more than three decades.

CORE was running a phone charging station at the convention center and Browne met a few team members and felt comfortable joking around with them. He said he quickly felt a connection.

“It just felt like a bond made in heaven,” Browne said.

He later received cash assistance from CORE and used it to purchase groceries and gas. The cash was a one-time thing, but the team has continued to help Browne and his wife, Celestine, navigate a host of other challenges.

“The emotional support and the moral support they’ve given me is priceless,” Browne said. “They have been there for me.”

It’s not just a hug or a handshake. His caseworker Simone has helped him apply and secure rental assistance from FEMA and the team is currently assisting him with legal issues surrounding his insurance claim. They also make sure he doesn’t miss out on any benefits available for fire survivors.

In addition to cash assistance and case management, CORE’s volunteers have distributed 40,000 hygiene kits and N95 masks and continue to give meals, clothes, diapers and other household items to fire survivors.

CORE has also remediated 150 housing units across L.A. County that were damaged by smoke and ash from the fires.

As smoke filled the sky in early January, Julia Winter, 77, hurried on foot to find her two grandchildren who had just been evacuated from Calvary Christian School in the Pacific Palisades.

After locating them, she walked down Sunset Boulevard alongside teachers to L.A. Fire Station 23 where her son-in-law was waiting for them. He whisked them away in his pickup truck.

“It was so scary for us because we never thought a fire would come down that far,” Winter said.

She evacuated with her daughter’s family to Westlake Village for two weeks and later moved in with the family in Topanga and stayed in a guest room for months. Her grandkids lovingly called it the “G-Suite” – after her nickname “G.”

“I just walked down for breakfast and playtime with my grandkids – I bonded with them so much,” Winter said. “I’m one of the lucky stories.”

But Winter’s condominium in the Casa Gateway affordable housing complex for seniors and families in the Palisades did sustain moderate smoke and ash damage from the fire.

The complex was also hit by debris and mud flows a month after the fire. Many senior residents were displaced for months because they were unable to cover insurance gaps to get the condos safe for their return, according to a spokesperson for CORE.

CORE utilized crews with the National Day Laborer Organizing Network as a subcontractor and so far they have completed 36 remediations there. Winter’s condo was scrubbed this summer by a cleanup crew and said it saved her thousands of dollars, she said.

“I did not pay a cent. I was just totally stunned and grateful,” said Winter, who was able to return to her condo this summer.

Each week, Sullivan, 63, drives back to Altadena where her Spanish-style home once stood. She waters the plumeria, succulents and other plants that survived the blaze.

Standing underneath a fire- scarred olive tree, she vowed to rebuild her home and return to the community she called home for more than two decades.

“We loved – *loved * – living here,” she said. “We loved the mountains. It was such a treat to drive up and say we are going home and see those mountains. We are coming back and we are going to rebuild.”

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — With the number of confirmed Legionnaires’ Disease cases rising in New York as well as the death toll, it is time for policy makers to address the problem at its source, according to the Alliance to Prevent Legionnaires Disease.

Since July 25, 2025, more than 108 individuals have been diagnosed with Legionnaires’ disease in Central Harlem. Tragically, six individuals have died. Legionnaires’ disease, a severe form of pneumonia, is caused by the waterborne bacteria legionella found naturally in source water and soil. If not properly treated and filtered, legionella can escape water treatment plants, entering water distribution systems, and ultimately infecting building, facility, and home water systems where humans can become exposed. Proactive and comprehensive measures must be taken to address legionella from source-to-tap if we are going to succeed in preventing the serious disease it causes.

“The current policies are not working,” said Bob Bowcock, Alliance Board Member and water expert who founded Integrated Resource Management. “What is needed is a comprehensive approach that recognizes the waterborne pathogens infiltrate homes and buildings through the water supply. Focusing only on end use is only going to lead to more outbreaks and more deaths.”

Local Law 77 passed a decade ago, mandates registration, inspection, cleaning, disinfection, and testing of certain water-using equipment in buildings. However, despite these measures, the city continues to face elevated cases and outbreaks that remain unabated, impacting economically disadvantaged areas the most. The singular emphasis on end-user equipment is reactionary once the bacteria has already entered premise plumbing systems rather than a comprehensive or preventative water-quality strategy.

In a recent op-ed in the New York Daily News (https://www.nydailynews.com/2025/08/24/erin-brockovich-harlem-legionnaires-disease-demands-real-action/), environmental activist Erin Brockovich wrote: “We need to move from reaction to prevention, and that means covering the whole water system from source to tap. New Jersey recently passed a law to require water management programs for both water utilities and buildings, stronger investigations, public education, and case tracking. Illinois has similar rules to mitigate risks upstream…Even the NYS Department of Health has issued a guide to reduce risk of exposure to Legionella bacteria at home and I couldn’t agree more that the public deserves far greater education, awareness and transparency related to this disease and the waterborne bacteria that causes it.”

Further, numerous studies^[i] have found a clear link between periods of heavy rainfall and an increased risk of contracting Legionnaires’ disease. Intense rain creates environmental conditions that support the growth and spread of legionella bacteria. On July 14, New York City experienced heavy rain and flash flooding, with Mayor Eric Adams reporting that Harlem experienced some of the heaviest rainfall during the event. The City’s Department of Environmental Protection called it one of the most intense rainstorms since Hurricane Ida. Given the well-documented connection between rainfall and Legionnaires’ cases, New York City should carefully examine the likelihood that this storm disrupted the water distribution system by dislodging and dispersing legionella bacteria, contributing to the current outbreak with cases first diagnosed 11 days after (incubation period for Legionnaires’ disease is 10-14 days).

“This disease is preventable,” Bowcock said. “But prevention begins at the water source and distribution system through proactive monitoring, management, and treatment to prevent the spread of the bacteria as water moves through the system to the end user. It is time to stop pretending that legionella bacteria magically fly through the air. It is spread through water and so logically the way to stop it is in the source of our water. The Alliance to Prevent Legionnaires’ Disease calls on New York to look to the recent actions taken by its neighbors in New Jersey who passed a comprehensive, source-to-tap law for Legionnaires’ disease prevention which takes effect in May 2026, and craft a workable policy that will stop these outbreaks and protect New York residents.”

The CDC reports that there are more than 8,000 cases of Legionnaires’ disease reported annually, with individual cases comprising 96% and outbreaks accounting for only 4%. One in ten individuals who contract Legionnaires’ disease will die from it and the fatality rate is higher among more susceptible populations.

About The Convertible Notes

On August 22, 2025, enCore Energy closed a $115 MM USD of senior unsecured convertible notes offering due August 15, 2030.

This unique financing provides the Company with access to long-term capital and maximum balance sheet flexibility going forward.  The notes bear a very attractive cash interest rate of 5.50% with flexibility upon investor conversions in future, to pay the principal in cash, common shares, or any combination thereof, at the Company’s election. In addition, the Company also retains the right to redeem the notes ahead of maturity, thereby forcing convertibility if the stock exceeds $4.28 USD for 20 out of 30 trading days from August 21st, 2028 onward.

In addition, the Company also entered into a private Capped-Call arrangement with an international consortium of leading banks to minimize any future dilution attributable to the notes, by raising the effective conversion premium from 127.5% to 175% above the closing price of the Company’s shares immediately preceding the transaction announcement on August 19th, 2025.  Simply stated, this means that the Company has successfully diversified their investor base, raising flexible growth capital without dilution to shareholders until the stock price exceeds approximately $4.52 USD per share.

Key initial terms of the Bitcoin Respect Loan are expected to include:

• Introductory Interest Rates and not just for 12 months: Launching with rates under 6.5% with option to lock in rates for one year to thirty years. Borrowers may also pre-pay interest out of loan proceeds, significantly reducing one aspect of default risk.
• Interest Only or Fully Amortizing Options: The borrower is empowered to choose the payment options that work best for them. Borrowers may elect interest-only or fully amortizing payments. Several options are available to help borrowers manage repayment over the term of the loan.

• Anti-Default Provisions: Numerous flexible payment options are available and designed to help borrowers manage obligations and reduce the likelihood of default. Borrowers may elect to prefund or automate payments over the term of the loan, giving them greater control and predictability. While these features are intended to support repayment, borrowers remain fully responsible for meeting their obligations. Our goal is to simply set a new standard in the industry – the Bitcoin Respect Loan standard.

“At BitBridge, we believe Bitcoin is sound money and perfect collateral that deserves respect in the lending market,” said Paul Jaber, CEO and Chairman of BitBridge Capital Strategies. “The Bitcoin Respect Loan is intended to provide borrowers with financing options aligned with long-term Bitcoin ownership. We believe this product may also create a recurring revenue stream for Bitbridge, which in turn may support long-term shareholder value, while further connecting traditional finance with digital asset markets.
