Los Angeles Dodgers minority owner Magic Johnson and Dodgers chairman Mark Walter are part of a private-sector group that California Governor Gavin Newsom has tapped to lead a nine-figure raise to support Los Angeles wildfire relief.

The governor of California has tapped three of Los Angeles's most influential people to lead the fire recovery initiative.

Gov. Gavin Newsom said LA Rises, a new private-sector philanthropic initiative, will work with the city, county and the state to support the rebuilding of Los Angeles. Mark Walter and the Dodgers will provide up to $100 million.
