As evacuated residents return to their homes following the Blue Ridge and Silverado Fires, there are still several ways you can help those affected.
You can make a $10 donation to the Red Cross to assist them in their efforts by texting CAWILDFIRES to 90999. You can also donate at redcross.org.
Donations to help the two critically injured Orange County Firefighters can be made at the Wildland Firefighter Foundation or at their GoFundMe account, organized by OC Firefighters Local 3631 to benefit Fallen Fire Fighter Relief Fund.
You can also send them cards at:

Due to COVID-19 restrictions, donations of food and/or supplies cannot be accepted at any Orange County fire stations or command posts. The best way to offer assistance to those affected by the fires is through monetary donations.
