The contribution is aimed at aiding those on the frontlines of the devastating wildfire crisis.
‘The Los Angeles wildfires are devastating our city,’ the A-lister, 50, said Wednesday on Instagram Stories. ‘I am committing $1 million in partnership with @rewild’s Rapid Response Program to support both urgent needs and post-fire recovery efforts.’
The Los Angeles native provided a list of organizations that would receive his donation.
‘Initial aid will immediately benefit the LA Fire Department Foundation, California Fire Foundation, World Central Kitchen, California Community Foundation, Pasadena Humane Society and SoCal Fire Fund – organizations providing much-needed resources to our first responders and firefighters, and the people, animals and communities who need it most,’ DiCaprio said.

The fires, which began on January 7, have ravaged thousands of homes, claimed at least 25 lives, and left nearly 30 individuals missing.
