AceShowbiz - Brittany Cartwright marked her 36th birthday on January 25. "The Valley" star celebrated with a lavish party at her Valley Village home, complete with a floral wall, elegant dining table, and twinkling lights.

But more importantly, Cartwright used the occasion to raise funds for victims of the devastating wildfires that ravaged Los Angeles County in January 2025. "I planned this before the wildfires, but I'm happy to say that we raised thousands of dollars last night," she wrote on Instagram.

The funds will be donated to the American Red Cross Fire Relief as well as another initiative that Cartwright is currently working on to support wildfire victims. "Anything I can do to help, I will," she declared.

Cartwright's friends and former "Vanderpump Rules" co-stars, including Kristen Doute, Scheana Shay, and Lala Kent, attended the party and showed their support for her charitable efforts. "This is a whole new year for me and basically a fresh start," Cartwright wrote. "I can't wait to see what my future brings."

The star's birthday celebration comes after a challenging year, which included her separation from husband Jax Taylor in February 2024. "Everyone knows I love to host, and I go all out on my parties," Cartwright said. "After this crazy year, I wanted to do something special for my friends who have been there for me every step of the way."
