Relief for Santa Rosa, CA

I am orginally from Santa Rosa, CA where the town went up in flames on Sunday night, and the fire rapidly expanded to hundreds of thousand of acres in a matter of hours. In addition to losing our family home in Glen Ellen, CA, the homes of friends, neighbors, classmates, and community members have been destroyed. The numbers continue to rise, not only of the structural devastation, but of the lives claimed. For more information, please check out: Washington Post  LA Times Press Democrat 

This is a private fundraising effort, and 100% of the donations will be given to Redwood Credit Union's fire relief fund. RCU is a local credit union who established a fund to give every penny back into the community through rebuilding efforts, financial assistance to families, and helping those most affected by this tragedy. More info can be found at: https://www.redwoodcu.org/northbayfirerelief 

In the coming days I will close this page and transfering 100% of the donations to Redwood Credit Union for their efforts, and they will allocate the funds as needed over the next several months. 

18 years of living in Santa Rosa, and not once did I ever take it for granted. My heart is with my community, and I'm grateful to my network of friends and colleagues from California to DC who want to help. Any donation will make a difference, and on behalf of every Santa Rosan - THANK YOU.
