Women and Children affected by California Campfire

Tax deductible
I am just an individual living in Sacramento who is feeling overwhelmed  and helpless after seeing the devastating  effects of the fire in Chico !!  

89.7 miles south of Chico, in Sacramento the air feels heavy and seems to be loaded with nitrogen and particulate matter. I could feel the irritation in my lungs as soon as I stepped out. I cannot fathom the health impacts of this fire on newborns or anyone living around Chico.

The death toll from the "Camp Fire" in Northern California has now increased to 76 since Saturday morning while 1,276 remain missing and 12,794 structures destroyed (including homes). Although the fire has been contained 55% it has burned more than 149,000 acres, and its still burning.

I am absolutely overwhelmed and heart broken to see the devastating damage created by the California Camp Fire. It has dislocated many families including my friends and colleagues, leaving a haunting memory in their mind. I am in pain thinking about little children and their parents who have been displaced and might not have family to support them. I wish I could help them all. It will take many months till the impact of this devastating fire is erased from everyone's memory.

This is my attempt to find support for women and children who have been affected by the most devastating wildfire within California.

If you are feeling overwhelmed and helpless then please join me as a team member and help me raise $5000 that I can donate to North Valley Community Foundation - Campfire Relief Fund  raised for women and children.

Please note NVCF will designate 1% of all fire relief donations to help cover the cost of administration and management of the fund. I ensure every single cent raised (aside from GoFundMe fees) will be spent helping the victims of the Camp Fire recover from this tragedy.

If you know me or any of my friend signed below in person and trust us then join our team and help us cross the $5000 target so that we can send the funds to North Valley Community Foundation in Chico that is actively  distributing funds to hospitals, local non-profits, community centers,  churches, shelters, animal disaster groups etc. Here  is a list of all the grants made by NVC so far. If we cross the target of $5000, we can make a direct contribution of $10,000 to NVCF via ACH/wire transfer. If we fail to reach my target I will send a check to NVCF as mentioned on their website.

OTHERWISE PLEASE JOIN ME IN POURING OUR HEART AND  SUPPORT FOR THE SURVIVORS OF CAMP FIRE.
