Relief for CamelBak Employees

As fires continue to rage through our homes and communities in Northern California, nearly all of our colleagues have been touched by the devastation either directly or indirectly.   The fires, still uncontained and burning relentlessly through our downtowns, schools, and homes have brought significant damage and loss.  As of October 11th, three of our CamelBak family members have been directly affected by losing their homes but a number have been evacuated and haven’t had the opportunities to assess the damage.  While the ash falls and flames continue to move across our land, we stand strong as a community together to re-build.  

As first responders are still fighting the fires and FEMA moves in, CamelBak is beginning the long journey of helping re-build our town and assist employees and their families – including water, food, temporary housing, bedding, inflatable beds and portable showers.

This fundraiser has been organized by colleagues of CamelBak to directly support the financial needs of employees and their families. For example, funds may be used for home repairs, temporary shelter, transportation, clothing, and other areas where there may be acute needs as a result of the fires that spread through over 70,000 acres in Napa and Sonoma Counties.  

Please join us and consider donating to support our fellow employees, our families, who are dealing with the devastating effects of the Northern California fires.

Camelbak will match employee donations dollar for dollar up to $50,000. 

Your donation is not tax deductible.
