California Devastated by Worst Fires in States History

in #news7 years ago

More than a dozen fires whipped by powerful winds blew through Napa and Sonoma valleys, known for their vineyards and wineries. The blaze torched at least 1,500 homes, businesses, and other structures. The situation is being called one of the worst firestorms in state history.

Santa Rosa was among the cities hit the hardest. A neighborhood known as Coffey Park — a cluster of single-family homes located two miles outside the downtown area — has largely turned to smoke and ash. These before-and-after images show the scale of the devastation.

We are raising money to assist those displaced by the firestorms.

They will need adequate shelter, food and supplies while we rebuild our community and recover.

All proceeds will be donated to the Redwood Empire Food Bank of Santa Rosa, CA.
