Kim Kardashian recently treated a group of former inmates turned firefighters to an unforgettable concert experience. 

According to TMZ, the reality star provided 90 floor seats to firefighters, with 70 attending the FireAid concert at the Intuit Dome, featuring Billie Eilish, Jelly Roll, and Olivia Rodrigo, while 20 others headed to the Kia Forum to enjoy performances by Green Day, No Doubt, and Joni Mitchell. 

Most of the attendees were part of the Ventura Training Center, a reentry program that trains previously incarcerated individuals for firefighting.


Kardashian has been an advocate for increasing wages for incarcerated firefighters and even urged California Governor Gavin Newsom to raise the $1-per-hour pay. She also credited the Ventura Training Center for its help during the L.A. wildfires. 

One of the firefighters, recently released from prison, attended his first-ever concert, and some shared the experience with special guest C.J. Stroud, Houston Texans quarterback. Kim was unable to attend due to filming commitments.
