Who we are

The Palisades Project is an initiative started by two Pacific Palisades high schoolers hoping to make a difference in our local community. We plan to not only fund small businesses recovering from the devastating January 2025 Southern California wildfires, but also support wildlife and individual relief efforts in the Pacific Palisades and neighboring areas.

We started The Palisades Project because the Pacific Palisades is our home, and we want to repay all the good that this magical community has done for us. We plan to restore the Palisades to its full glory, and pave the way for a safe, comfortable, and beautiful town for all to enjoy!

Our Mission:

Our mission is to make a lasting impact in our local Pacific Palisades community by fostering connection, kindness, and, most importantly, providing support for those affected by the devastating series of natural disasters in early 2025. We are dedicated to assisting small businesses within the Palisades and neighboring communities with rebuilding efforts, recovery, and the creation of a more resilient and thriving local economy for all.

How YOU can help


Helping Los Angeles recover from the devastating wildfires is not as hard as it may seem. Donations through our website will be provided to small businesses that were directly affected by the January 2025 Southern California wildfires. By donating, you will be helping us restore our vibrant community for all to enjoy. Any donation helps, big or small, we will take all!
