As most of you know, the West Coast is dealing with a huge number of wildfires, including several extremely devastating fires in my home state of Oregon.

Although Portland itself has been spared from the worst of the fires, people I grew up with have lost everything, and towns up and down the coast have been destroyed, sometimes overnight and with very little warning.

Fortunately, the weather has changed for the better, and at least here in Western Oregon, firefighters have begun to make real strides towards controlling the spread of the fires.

Even so, there are thousands who need immediate aid in the form of shelter, food and water, first aid, and protection from the toxic air blanketing the West Coast.

We're a small business, but we want to do our own small part to help, so we will be donating 10% of our gross sales through the end of September to the Red Cross, earmarked especially for wildfire relief.

And whether you shop, donate directly, or volunteer, we hope you'll join us in providing support to those affected by this disaster.
