Virginia charity Alice's Kids will pay for the prom tickets of about 800 high school seniors in the Altadena, California area, affected by the Eaton Fire.

Actor Steve Carell is sending Southern California high school students affected by the devasting wildfires in Los Angeles to the prom for free. The “Office” actor and comedian said Tuesday in an Instagram video that he was working with the Alice's Kids charity to pay for prom for seniors at six high schools in Pasadena.

Arguably an equal (if not greater) number referenced "Scott's Tots," an episode of Carell's hit comedy The Office. In it, his character, overzealous boss Michael Scott, faces the reality of a promise he made a decade prior — paying for the college education of a class of local public school students.
