Feinstein: Wildfire Evacuation Sites Expand, Red Cross Accepting Donations

Source: United States Senator for California – Dianne Feinstein

Washington—Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) today released the following statement on statewide evacuation sites and the need to prepare to flee dangerous wildfire conditions:

“Tens of thousands of Californians have been forced to flee raging wildfires, notably the Caldor Fire and the Dixie Fire.

“Any Californian who has evacuated can use state-run shelters as well as shelters for small and large animals. These times are incredibly stressful and state and federal governments will do everything possible to help.

“The Red Cross is also available to help, and those who would like to donate to the Red Cross can do so online at redcross.org or by calling 1-800-RED CROSS. If you need any assistance, please call my San Francisco office at 415-393-0707. We’re here to help.”

More information on how to donate to the Red Cross is available here.
