As someone who went through this, along with basically all my close friends and family.
People are going to give you shit, weather you want it or not. I'm sure 99% of it has the best intentions, although we got stuff that looked like it was set out to be tossed on trash day also. I'm sure the fact that we had a 1 year old and my wife was due 5 weeks after the fire made it extra badpeople would even give us stuff after we told them we had no where to put it, 2 full vehicles and living in an 18' trailer. "well, it's just xxx" :rolleyes:
We also got a ton of really nice stuff, so I try to be positive.
If you want to help someone, offer to take all the shit they've been given to goodwill. Not kidding.
Some essential things are nice to have, like socks, underwear, toiletries, maybe even cheap cooking supplies. Everyone's situation is different though.
Honestly, visa type gift cards are the best way to spend your money. That way the person can do whatever they want, even if they spend it on a fucking x box, maybe that's what they need to occupy their mind for a little bit.
My wife found a lot of great programs also, especially once we got back into a more permanent house and needed things like furniture. If anyone needs help with any of this, feel free to pm, text me or call me(no promises with bad service at home, and a strange work schedule, I'm up from 230am-800pm weekdays)

I think it also depends on where you are. When we started accepting donations for the Tubbs fire, we had people pull up with trunk loads of brand new items from target and Macy's. I found one receipt for 12k
But yes, we also got a couple of grandmas cleaning their closets of all the crap their families hadn't already staked a claim to![]()
I volunteered in chico for the Oroville dam spillway evac, I'm young and have a back, so I ended up at the gate unloading donations. I saw the whole spectrum. Mounted truck bed from Costco of brand new shit. Then another old lady who brought in random pictures, lamps, and shit.
We stayed in Southlake Tahoe for a week after the fire. Our friends husband works at an art gallery up there and the owner wanted us to stay in her apartment she has set up for artist when they come stay. Shit you not "be careful with that painting, it's worth like $12k"OK, I'll let my 1 year old know
We got everything from a box full of brand new stuff from under armor, to a bag with used underwear and dirty kids cleats.
Cleats? Really? I fucking NEED 4 pairs of kids cleats right now?
Like I said, we got so much love and generosity sent our way, but it got really frustrating having to deal with getting rid of a bunch a shit when you also have nothing. It also get weird when you forget what stuff is actually yours and what is borrowed.
This is not a request.
Having dealt with all the norcal fires in the last couple years, TELL him he needs to let us know what he/his need. Otherwise he will end up with a bunch of crap he is grateful for but cant use.
If he needs anything, tell him to call me. Nick- 831-325-3594 im in santa cruz.
Hey nick, Booth just left exhausted from his property, everything in the back 40 is gone but the house is still standing as of now. Didn't ask his permission but Austin and I are meeting up at the summit park and ride to go in and try to save his place tonight. Let me know if you want to cruise with.

I'm thinking it will either be a loss or burned past it in the morning. No reception or internet up there.... all his neighbors houses are gone except one and he spent his last bit of energy trying to save that one. Hes been up for 4 days.
I'll get a message out to you on here by the morning.
Unfortunately his neighborhood isn't really priority when towns are being threatened being that there is no water supply currently within a mile.
upload to the drive in the TP, can link it after that.
I have been following this one too. My dad lives in Quincy. He randomly left town on Thursday to go to an doctor appointment which is good.Following the Claremont fire. Mom got out okay. Reading the fire map it's not looking good for the house.

My mom evacuated to stay with friends and family in Taylorsville. Now they are evacuating that area too. The whole area is fucked. She's going to stay with friends near concow.

It sucks my dad cant go back. He lives in a travel trailer and can go hook up and roll out
in like 20 minutes of he wanted too
I have no idea what that means![]()
guess the dude was being a dick. He tries later and had no issues getting to his trailer. He packed his stuff up and left the trailer lol. He was like meh its a cheap trailer if it burns it burnsCan't go back? Has he tried actually talking to the people manning the road blocks?
Did we used to have so many fires back in the days when logging wasn't heavily regulated?
