AG Bonta shared tips and resources on how Californians can avoid scams and donate safely to the recovery efforts following the devastating twin earthquakes in Venezuela last week.

“In the face of this devastating natural disaster, I have every confidence in the tremendous generosity and compassion of Californians. Sadly, as charity fraud becomes more common across the nation, it is crucial that Californians do their research before donating. I encourage donors to review these tips and resources to ensure their contributions touch the right hands and hearts. Many charities are already working tirelessly to support our southern neighbors, and I’m committed to ensuring that donations are not diverted or misspent.”  -AG Bonta
