I started this fundraiser because I believe everyone deserves a fighting chance when wildfires strike. As fires grow faster and conditions change by the minute, timely, verified information can mean the difference between safety and tragedy. I am supporting Watch Duty because their team of active and retired firefighters, dispatchers, and first responders provide real-time alerts that communities can trust — not crowdsourced rumors, but life-saving updates from people who know what to listen for.

Watch Duty works around the clock to monitor incidents, clarify evolving conditions, and get accurate information into the hands of firefighters, first responders, and neighbors. Your support helps keep these critical services running 24/7, expand coverage into more at-risk areas, and maintain free, accessible alerts so everyone can act sooner and stay safer. When seconds matter, having clear, verified updates makes it possible to make faster, smarter decisions.

I hope you will join me in supporting Watch Duty so they can keep improving response tools and reach more communities before danger escalates. Your gift supports real people doing real work to protect lives and property in urgent moments.

Please donate today and help keep life-saving alerts free, fast, and available to those who need them most.
