Help Our First Responders Recover From The L.A. Fires
Donation protected
We are a community of holistic wellness providers in LA, looking to supply critical support to our first responders, to heal from both the toxic exposure, and mental / emotional overwhelm experienced while fighting the LA Fires.
What is happening in California right now is unimaginable. There are endless people suffering and in need of support. However, the brave men and women on the frontlines fighting these fires are often overlooked after they have finished the grueling tasks placed in front of them.
Firefighters are consistently exposed to high levels of toxins as a part of their job, breathing in air that is hazardous to humans. They are at an increased risk for chronic inflammatory conditions and developing several types of cancer in the future. In addition, frequent injuries, and a well documented increase in anxiety and depression often go hand in hand with the decision to serve others. They deserve better. We can help.
Our Mission:
Provide our first responders with care packages that contain supplements to actively help support detoxification, reduce their stress response, and aid in recovery after the grueling physical demand, exposure to extreme heat, and emotional exhaustion that these moments present.
How Your Donation Helps:
Your donation will go directly to cover the costs of producing these wellness packages for our firefighters. This includes, supplemental and material costs, printing and packaging, and will include:
• Vitamin C
• Glutathione
• NAC (N-Acetyl Cysteine)
• Liver support
• Magnesium
• Quercetin
• And more
Once all donations have been received and items purchased, we will hand-deliver this support to fire stations and first responders throughout Los Angeles within the next 2-3 weeks.
In addition, we’ve partnered with a growing network of over 30 health practitioners in Los Angeles to offer free holistic treatments for first responders, without having to jump through the hoops of the insurance system, or the out-of-pocket costs that many of these therapies can incur. These treatments will be included in our kits as well. Services include:
• Acupuncture
• IV therapy
• Massage
• Chiropractic care
• Breathwork
• And more
This GoFundMe is designed to fill the gap between the amazing work already done by large organizations, and the specific need for restorative care that many of our frontline heroes lack access to. The funds raised here will ensure that we can continue to provide these wellness options, while also supplementing our outreach efforts to brands that are contributing to the cause.
Every contribution counts, and no donation is too small. Your generosity will directly support the well-being of the firefighters and first responders who are selflessly protecting our communities. We are incredibly grateful for any support you can offer.
All funds received will go to non disaster related expenses.
Thank you so much for your time, consideration, and support.
