My smart friend and commentator, Flavia Colgan, wrote this delightful column for the Philadelphia Daily News about what one can do to help California’s fire victims. She says she’s been getting a heartening response, even from as far away as her hometown of Philly, PA.
In the column she lists the following agencies that are collecting donations for fire victims:
American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund: 800-HELP-NOW or 800-257-7575 for Spanish speakers, .
Corporations and businesses interested in making in-kind donations may call 800-746-5463.
San Diego Food Bank: 866-350-3663
Goodwill Southern California: 888-4-GOODWILL
Salvation Army Southern California: 213-896-9160, www.salvationarmysocal.org.
Governor’s Office of Emergency Services: 800-750-2858
And for helping other species other than our own: Los Angeles Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals: 888-SPCA-LA1
