 Attention, it has come to our attention that there has been social media posts/conversations about donating to the U.S. Forest Service Fire Management Teams. We greatly appreciate the support and generosity of the community, but we ARE NOT accepting or requesting donations! Our team’s focus is on the mission of fire suppression while keeping firefighter and public safety our number one priority. Our wildland fire crews are well equipped and cared for. However if you are interested in showing support below is a list of ways you can support our team and mission:

Here are some ways you can show support for firefighters.

• Help keep firefighters safe by creating defensible space around your home. Creating defensible space around your home is absolutely the BEST thing you can do to help firefighters.  Learn how at http://firewise.org.

• Post thank you banners / signs in the community and on social media.  This is a great morale booster for firefighters after a long shift!

• Write thank you notes to firefighters. Drop them off at the incident command post so they can be posted or shared.

• Write thank you letters to firefighters families.  Put them in blank, stamped envelopes.  After briefings or after shifts, firefighters can address letters to parents, kids, spouses, etc. 

Consider a financial contribution to a voluntary organization of your choice. You might consider a donation to:

• Your Local Fire Department
• The Wildland Firefighter Foundation or other firefighter support organization
• The American Red Cross or other community relief organization

• Your local Humane Society or other animal support organization
• Other organizations of your choice

Thank you for your kind consideration!
