By now I am sure all of you are aware of the devastating wildfires in the Okanagan region of BC.
I was in the North Okanagan when the tragic Bald Range Wildfire broke out in Summerland on Friday night and I was scheduled to be vending at a market in downtown Summerland tomorrow. Yesterday I safely returned home to Calgary, but my heart remains in the Okanagan with those affected by this fire.
For most of my life, I have spent summers in the Okanagan, between OK Falls and Summerland specifically. I have family currently displaced by this fire and to see a place that I love so much, that holds so many cherished memories for me, under threat of wildfire is heart breaking.
I have decided that for the remainder of August, a portion of all sales will be donated to wildfire relief efforts for the Bald Range Wildfire. At this time, it is undecided on which organization I will be giving to, but I am in communication with friends and loved ones in the area and I will be choosing an organization where I know our funds will be donated to the community directly.
So please, if you have been thinking of making a purchase, if you have a cart full of goodies and are waiting for the right time to complete the order, now IS that time. Your money will directly help those affected by this tragic fire.
