LOS ANGELES — “Good Morning America” is set to go live from Southern California on Friday to provide extended coverage of the wildfires as part of ABC News’ “SoCal Strong” initiative.
The focus of the coverage will be on supporting communities in the Los Angeles area that have been affected by the destructive wildfires. The goal is to promote recovery, rebuilding, and resilience, while also highlighting ways for viewers to assist local organizations that are aiding SoCal families in the reconstruction of their lives.
“Good Morning America” hosts Robin Roberts and Michael Strahan, along with chief meteorologist and climate correspondent Ginger Zee, will be reporting live from various locations throughout Southern California.
Chief national correspondent Matt Gutman and correspondent and ABC News Live anchor Kayna Whitworth, who have been covering the fires since last week, will also join the coverage.
In addition to highlighting the many communities that were impacted, there will be live musical performances during “GMA” on Friday. Singer Aloe Blacc will perform his song “Shine (Aurora)” and children’s choir The High Notes will perform their original song “The Light in Me, the Light in You.”
Tune into “Good Morning America” on Friday, Jan. 17, as ABC News and ABC owned stations kick off “SoCal Strong” (#SoCalStrong) coverage in support of Los Angeles-area communities amid the devastating wildfires. Coverage continues across ABC News programs and platforms.
