New York, Jan 12, (V7N) - Halle Berry and Sharon Stone, co-stars from the movie "Catwoman," are stepping up as real-life heroes to help the victims of the ongoing wildfires in Southern California. Berry took to Instagram on Friday, announcing that she was donating her entire closet to +Coop, a Beverly Hills home goods store aiding those affected by the fires.
 
“I’m packing up my entire closet and heading over to the COOP! If you live in the Southern California area, I urge you to do the same. This is something we can do right now today to help all of the displaced families that are in need of the basics today! Thank you @sharonstone for your leadership. Love you, Lady,” Berry wrote on Instagram.
 
Berry emphasized the importance of community support, referencing a quote from Margaret Mead: "Never forget that a group of thoughtful committed citizens can make a difference." She scanned her room, filled with donations, to show the scope of her contribution.
 
As of Saturday, the wildfires in Southern California have claimed the lives of at least 11 people and caused widespread destruction. Los Angeles County Fire Chief Anthony Marrone confirmed that over 10,000 structures have been destroyed. Celebrities who have lost their homes in the fires include Cameron Mathison, Jhené Aiko, Miles Teller, Tina Knowles, Ricki Lake, Billy Crystal, Paris Hilton, Anna Faris, Melissa Rivers, Spencer Pratt, Heidi Montag, and now, Berry and Stone.
 
Stone, who has also been actively supporting the cause, posted on Instagram about a donation drive for LA wildfire victims at +Coop. She encouraged people displaced by the fires to come to the store for clothes, blankets, and shoes, or to make donations.
 
On Saturday, +Coop reiterated their call for donations, seeking clothing and essentials for men, women, teenagers, and children. Celebrities like Michelle Pfeiffer have joined the cause, with Pfeiffer commenting on Berry's Instagram post, "Can I do tomorrow?" offering her support for the relief efforts.
 
Berry and Stone are leading by example, showing how individuals and communities can come together to support those in need during this challenging time.
