Orange Cares Q1 Recap: $4,222 Donated to Watch Duty to Support Wildfire Alerts
Orange Aluminum donated $4,222 to Watch Duty through our Q1 2025 Orange Cares initiative, supporting the nonprofit’s efforts to expand wildfire alert coverage and improve access to timely information.
For our team in the greater Los Angeles area, this cause was close to home. The Palisades and Eaton fires earlier that year underscored how much communities depend on clear updates when conditions change quickly.
Our customers and partners helped make this contribution possible. It is one example of how Orange Aluminum connects everyday business with community giving.

Why Orange Aluminum Chose Watch Duty
The impact of the early 2025 fires extended across communities connected to our employees, customers, and neighbors. They brought the importance of accessible wildfire information into sharp focus.
When a fire threatens an area, people want to understand where it is, how it is developing, and what authorities are reporting. Watch Duty’s focus on verified updates made it a meaningful organization for our team to support.
Our Q1 selection reflected a practical priority: contributing to a service that helps communities stay informed about wildfire activity.

How Orange Cares Turns Customer Support Into Community Giving
Orange Cares, also known as OrangeCares, is Orange Aluminum’s quarterly charitable giving program. We donate a portion of our sales to nonprofit organizations, with employee nominations helping shape the causes we support.
The program connects our team’s experiences and priorities with opportunities to give back. Each initiative has its own story, but the purpose remains consistent: supporting organizations doing meaningful work for others.
For Q1 2025, that meant contributing to Watch Duty’s wildfire information services. Other initiatives have focused on needs such as patient support, youth opportunities, and assistance for families.
