Actor James Woods may be known for espousing his political points of views on Twitter, and even getting in trouble with the platform’s reviewers more than once, but on November 8, 2018, he used Twitter for all the right reasons. While the nation discussed the political fallout and gains from the mid-term elections, Woods chose to leave the political debate to the wayside and organized a social media team to help save lives.

As the deadly California Camp Fire obliterated Paradise, California, Woods consolidated resources, created a hashtag, and provided a one-stop information center for those in need of evacuation routes, information on lost loved ones, help to find nearby shelters, road closures and more.

Woods worked throughout the day sharing the hasthtag #CampFire and then created #CampFireJamesWoods that when viral. Many people shared heartbreaking photos of their missing loved ones. While many other hashtags are being used, please keep in mind that #CampFireJamesWoods is the main hashtag that will be used as a depot for those in need of help and resources.
