Martin Guitar Stands with Los Angeles: Providing Support for Fire Relief Efforts

The recent wildfires in Los Angeles have left an overwhelming impact on communities, families, and businesses. At Martin Guitar, we are heartbroken by the devastation and suffering caused by these fires. Our connection to the L.A. music community runs deep—we have countless friends, family members, partners, artists, and customers in the area who have been affected.

In moments like these, we believe in coming together to provide meaningful support. That’s why Martin Guitar and the Martin Guitar Charitable Foundation are donating to several key organizations that are making a difference on the ground, ensuring those in need receive immediate aid and long-term assistance.

Martin Guitar’s donations will directly support the following organizations:

Wildfires Relief Fund provides needs-based assistance to NAMM members, music programs, and professionals affected by the disaster. The NAMM Foundation is currently assessing needs and will distribute funds to help sustain the music community during this difficult time.
