I originally wasn’t going to share this here, but after talking to my grandpa a bit more and seeing all of the continued news out of Butte County, here goes. 

This is the donation link for the fund set up for my grandpa and uncle, done by my cousin. It’s on Paypal, and my cousin is sending the money right to my uncles bank account. My grandpa, his girlfriend, and my uncle are currently living out of the camper van my grandpa owns. It’s the only car of theirs to survive. Their houses (they lived on the same property) were completely destroyed in the blaze. 

They were able to get out with a limited amount of clothing and possessions, as well as their dogs. They’re currently sleeping in the driveway of a family friend in nearby Chico, which is also under threat from the fires. Any bit helps, as I’m sure my grandpa will need to restock medications and they’re going to need food and gas incase they need to evacuate again.

If you can’t donate, please think about reblogging and spreading the word. And if you’d feel more comfortable donating to the larger cause, here’s the link to the North Valley Community Foundation fund that’s currently providing aid to the numerous evacuation centers.
