SPARK Academy Supports Children Affected by LA Wildfires
Offering healing through art, theater and sports

In response to the devastating 2025 Los Angeles wildfires, HOPE worldwide launched
SPARK Academy to support children ages 5–12 in the Pasadena and Altadena communities. Volunteers throughout Los Angeles supported the program, many from the Lifeway Church.
Through six Saturday sessions filled with arts, theatre, and sports-based activities, children were given a safe space to process what they experienced and begin rebuilding confidence and resilience.
