WE ARE HERE. WE ARE STRONG.
- Fire Chief Darby Allen
Fort McMurray is known for its abundance of residents from the east coast, so it's no surprise how much this situation has impacted everyone so heavily. My mom first moved out there three years ago and was joined by my sister last year. Although it's difficult to be away from your family, I was always so glad they were able to feel comfortable living there. The more people I talk to, the more I realize that everyone seems to be connected to someone that has been directly affected by the wildfires.
My sister was keeping me updated on the fires through pictures and videos and I began to get extremely nervous with its size and magnitude. It just seemed too large and too close for comfort, which is when I began to panic as she waited for her students to be collected by their parents. She was alone and scared like so many people that day.
I kept asking myself over and over; "How can I help?"
After the dust settled, I was over whelmed with joy to find out that everyone had survived and were safe. That was quickly over shadowed by seeing the destruction the fires had left. I didn't know how to help although I felt absolutely compelled to do something.
My father's company, PR Direct Signs & Promotions handles printing on clothing and so I quickly reached out to a friend to help come up with a design that we would be proud to wear.
With all donations being matched by the Federal Government, this will DOUBLE all of our contributions.
