LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Fire crews continue to battle the Pawnee fire, and with thousands of residents already ordered evacuated from their homes, the county of Lake has received requests for information on the most effective way to make donations to assist fire Survivors and their families.
Officials said cash donations are most helpful at this time. They allow those supporting disaster relief efforts to direct assistance where it is most needed.
The county is unable to accept in-kind donations, such as clothing, household goods and other supplies.
In-kind donations require significant time and financial resources to distribute.
If someone close to you needs clothing or other everyday items, please provide them directly, if you can. If you are able to help the broader disaster response and relief effort, cash is best.
Those who are able, please make cash donations at: https://www.ncoinc.org/.
