Calling
ALL Dream of a Better World friends, team members and donors! We have some
urgent needs and projects to support CALIFORNIA WILDFIRE VICTIMS. For our friends from around the world who may not have heard the news, tens of thousands of Californians have tragically lost homes, pets, cars, belongings and, in some cases, loved ones! There are so many IMMEDIATE NEEDS that we are collecting donations for just about everything you can imagine for putting their lives back together. We primarily need monetary donations that we can use to help fill in the gap and get people back on their feet.
The most immediate needs:
1) TEMPORARY HOUSING for displaced families staying in
shelters. If you have a room, a house, or any location that will house people
on a temporary basis, please contact us! Also, one of our friends, Tracy Ferm,
is helping a sweet couple move into a refurbished plumbing store, but it needs
furniture, household items and minor repairs to make it livable. Please help if
you can!
2) BASIC NEEDS - We are
collecting new and very
gently used items to help meet basic household needs to sustain and begin to
rebuild for families who lost everything. Examples include:
furniture, tools, housewares, toiletries, blankets, canned food, sleeping bags,
blow up beds, gift certificates for Walmart, Costco, Bed Bath & Beyond,
VISA cards, etc. These items will be transported up to Chico where most
of these families are currently being housed.
Thank you all for sharing your stories with us. This will clearly be a marathon, so let’s start

possible.
