The Redwood Credit Union Community Fire Relief Fund for 2020 will be open at least through October. Financial donations are now being accepted into the fund to assist fire survivors and aid relief efforts. One hundred percent of the tax-deductible donations will be distributed directly to fire survivors, beginning with those who lost their primary residence in Sonoma, Marin, Napa, and Lake Counties and through nonprofit organizations.
There will be no overhead costs from RCUCF. As additional funds become available, RCUCF will provide support to those who experienced increased expenses due to the recent evacuations.
Donations can be made online at:
rcucommunityfund.org or by mail, P.O. Box 6104, Santa Rosa, CA 95406 (Attn: 2020 Fire Relief Fund).The Redwood Credit Union Community Fund is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit fund created by Redwood Credit Union to support our commitment to wellness in our communities.
