Billie Eilish, Katy Perry and Lady Gaga are among the artists headlining a benefit concert called FireAid later this month in an effort to help those affected by the Southern California wildfires.

The fires began on Jan. 7 and have ravaged thousands of acres throughout the Los Angeles area, destroying homes, businesses and more in its path.

At least 25 people have died, more than a dozen others remain unaccounted for, and tens of thousands of people have been forced to evacuate amid the wildfires, which have been fueled by severe drought conditions and strong winds.
