FireAid, featuring Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga, Sting, Red Hot Chili Peppers and others in a fundraiser for Los Angeles-area wildfire relief efforts, is the latest event to combine music and philanthropy.

Billie Eilish made a surprise appearance on stage with Green Day on Thursday to kick off one of two star-studded concerts in Los Angeles put together to raise funds for people affected by deadly wildfires in California this month.

"From the bottom of our hearts, we love you Los Angeles," Billie Joe Armstrong told the crowd, "and we've got your back no matter what"
