Angelina Jolie and her 16-year-old son, Knox, stocked up on essentials for those in need as the wildfires in Los Angeles rage on.

The mother-son duo was spotted shopping for supplies such as food and water bottles on Thursday.

Jolie, 49, told the Daily Mail she was very concerned about the situation and was housing people at her Los Feliz home.

“Right now I’m taking care of people close to me and having them at my house,” she told the outlet.

The “Maria” actress noted that she will also be donating to fire relief efforts in the coming weeks.

It’s unclear which of Jolie’s six children — Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 20, Shiloh, 18, and Vivienne, 16, — are currently staying with her in California. She shares her kids with ex Brad Pitt.

Jolie isn’t the only celebrity to spur into action. Earlier this week, Jamie Lee Curtis announced she was donating $1 million to victims of the natural disaster alongside her husband, Christopher Guest.

Kylie Jenner, Mark Zuckerberg, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle also all made unspecified donations to local relief organizations.

While some stars made a monetary impact, others offered up their time.

On Friday, Jennifer Garner was spotted volunteering with a worldwide relief organization to help feed firefighters.

The “Elektra” actress was joined by chef José Andrés, whose not-for-profit, non-governmental organization World Central Kitchen has been providing food for victims of the fire.

Halle Berry, Sharon Stone, Harry Hamlin, Michelle Pfeiffer and more also donated bags of clothes to those whose possessions were destroyed.

However, some celebs are on the other side of the heartbreaking situation as they grapple with the loss of their homes.

Mel Gibson, Adam Brody and Leighton Meester, Miles Teller, Anthony Hopkins, John Goodman and more are among those who tragically lost everything.

Five major fires have been burning through Los Angeles since Tuesday, scorching nearly 30,000 acres of land and leveling over 10,000 structures.

The blaze was fueled by 100-mile-per-hour winds, forcing over 100,000 residents to evacuate the area. As of Friday, there are 10 reported deaths.

The fires are already among the most destructive in Los Angeles County history.

However, officials say firefighters “expect to gain significant containment” on the flames by Saturday.
