Continued Relief for Camp Fire Victims

Donation protected

Dear Neighbors, Family and Friends:

 

Over the last month we have been researching the needs of the displaced people of the Paradise fires and the organizations supporting the victims. We have been figuring out how we can best help the victims.  It’s been difficult to find out exactly how larger organizations distribute funds collected, so we’ve been working with two dedicated caseworkers who are focused on helping the Paradise victims directly.

 

Many of the families that were impacted travel from motel to motel every few days, barely staying afloat, with absolutely no solutions in sight.  Others are living in tents in parking lots or moving from shelter to shelter – they have literally become refugees in their own town. Many victims are relying on donations to help them get through this trying time.

 

Over the next four weeks, we are spearheading efforts to collect monetary donations, gift cards and supplies, the donations suggested by the caseworkers, with plans to deliver these items directly to various affected families in Paradise the weekend of February 8th. 100% of proceeds will go directly to victims.

 

Please consider helping support this critical cause. Examples of items we need include:

 

·  Gift cards, i.e., Safeway, Costco, Walmart, Target, Gas Stations, Starbucks, fast food chains, Visa etc.

·  Cash or check to be given directly to the shelters

·  Visit our gofundme page to make online donations:   https://bit.ly/2DbWTQt

·  Shelf stable food, i.e., canned and non-perishable

 

Thank you in advance for your support of this important cause.


Warm Regards,

Rese Morton
