Commenter, a public commenter, praised California Volunteers as "the largest service corps, larger than Peace Corps in the country" and said the group began "in the aftermath of the fires," adding that volunteers provided food, clothing and comfort to people who had lost homes, businesses and schools.

The remarks, delivered during the meeting's public comment period, emphasized the role of service corps in immediate disaster response. The commenter said: "You're such an inspiration to young people. You're an inspiration to our service corps. The largest service corps, larger than peace corps in the country all started here in California in the aftermath of the fires, which is how quickly people who had lost everything, their business, their home, their school, their community came to be together to be in service of others, to provide food, to provide clothing, to give someone a hug. Like, that was just so beautiful and that that gave me hope because we're in this together. We're only as strong as our weakest link thing."

The speaker added a short closing line: "What do we have? We have each other."

These comments were part of public comment and did not result in any formal action or vote during the meeting. The speaker did not specify which fires were referenced or provide independent verification for the claim that the corps described is larger than the Peace Corps; the article attributes those claims to the commenter rather than presenting them as verified facts.
