Hi everyone! There is currently a clean water crisis going on right in our state! The people on the Warm Springs Reservation in Oregon are without safe tap water, and some do not have access to running water at all. In the midst of a pandemic, this situation has become even more dire. The article linked does a great job going in more depth on the crisis! I have been in contact with the Warm Springs Emergency Manager Danny Martinez and he has given me a list of supplies that are desperately needed. These include drinking water, towels, and canned foods/ non-perishable food items for families that are in isolation due to the virus. This go fund me is being set up in order to raise money to purchase these supplies which will then be directly transported to the reservation and donated. We have the means and opportunity to support this native community which means we have a responsibility to do so!
