October 26, 2007
The information below on special funds established to respond to the fires in Southern California was put together by the folks at San Diego Grantmakers and Southern California Grantmakers and forwarded by Northern California Grantmakers to Janet Camarena, the director of the Foundation Center's San Francisco office. Thanks to Janet for the head's up.

The Jenna Druck Foundation's Families Helping Families Program is helping many of the fire victims cope with the loss of their home or a loved one during this challenging time. We held a town hall in Escondido last night and will continue to be available to help fire victims deal with their loss in the weeks, months, and years that follow.

Our home was destroyed in a fire, not a declared disaster, we had a bad contractor and the insurance company severely underpaid.
We want to save our home, It's about 3/4 built, does anyone know of any organizations that help with non-declared rebuilding?? We just want to go home...
Thank you so much-
The Cauble Family
