Charity for California Fire Victims

Cafire4 Anyone who would like to make a donation to any of the charities below can contact them directly thru the links and numbers we have here.  This page is my way of trying to give back and help those in need in California who have lost their homes and more.  Some have lost their lives, and that can never be replaced.  For those that have lost their homes, their valued possessions, their friends or family members, and their lives, we want to get the word out to those readers who can contribute and make a difference.  We want to make a difference too and have made a donation to the American Red Cross to help those in California in need because of the fires.  Let's all pray for help from above and charitable contributions that will truly make a difference in someone's life.

Cafire2 These fires have burned more than 516,000 acres killing at least 7 people and injuring more than 90 others.  The blazes have charred more than 2000 homes and over 1200 of those were in San Diego County.  Almost a million people have been affected by the fires.

Reflection

  • Integrity - If only more of us had the integrity, grace, and humility of Tim Russert, this world would be a peaceful and glorious place.

    Thank God for Master's Soap. Without it I would surely have blood poisoning.

    I am certain that artists are keeping the paper towel manufacturers in business

    Nothing like good country music and a paint brush to start the day
