Gift Cards for Victims:
As our North Bay Fires response enters the next phase of support from evacuation centers meeting basic needs to a relocation effort, our charitable partners Society of St. Vincent de Paul and north bay Catholic Schools, need gift cards to help families establish new households. We’ve collected over $1700 toward this program for Fire Relief.
