Justin Thomas has pledged to donate $50,000 to support World Central Kitchen, an organization providing relief aid to those affected by the Los Angeles wildfires. He has partnered with his sponsor One Lineage for this cause.
One Lineage is a temperature-controlled warehousing and logistics company that aims at "reimagining the global food supply chain to fight food insecurity" and reduce wastage. Justin Thomas announced his pledge via his account on the social media platform X on Thursday:
"Together with my friends from One Lineage, we are donating $50,000 to support World Central Kitchen and their continued efforts in Los Angeles."
At the moment, Thomas is competing at the Genesis Open in Torrey Pines. Traditionally, the event is held at the Riviera Country Club. However, the venue was changed this year after the devastating impacts of the massive LA wildfires. The ace golfer acknowledged the situation in his post saying:
"This week’s PGA TOUR event, Genesis Open is taking place at Torrey Pines since we were not able to play at our usual stop The Riviera Country Club due to the wildfires that have devastated the city and those who live there. The people of California have always welcomed us players with open arms and so many great events. I know they’ll be back stronger than ever."
Thomas also urged his fans to donate to the cause as the victims are still dealing with the aftermath of the disaster.
