Tim - california-fire-relief-bundle -  Hundreds of game and tabletop game developers have gotten together to create this bundle in support of CORE (Community Organized Relief Effort), a Los Angeles-based organization which offers direct monetary support to survivors of the fires, and supports projects for fire resilience in affected areas (and potential disaster zones).  

There are more than 400 games, TTRPGs, asset packs, and other projects in this bundle, and we encourage you to donate above the minimum whenever possible.
