[UUA-L] UUA District Begins Fire Relief Fund to Help Californians

[Unitarian Universalist Association]

(October 24, 2007) - As reported in an earlier UUA email message, the
fires currently sweeping across southern California have affected
Unitarian Universalists (UUs) in many communities. In response to this
disaster, the Pacific Southwest District (PSWD) of the UUA has begun the
PSWD Fire Relief Fund. A district committee will disburse all funds
collected to UU congregations, UUs in need, community groups in
relationship with UU congregations, and other groups supporting those
most in need.

District Executive Ken Brown notes, "As we have found in the past,
insurance does not cover such devastation and it can take years for
those affected to recover." 

Donations to the PSWD Fire Relief Fund are being accepted online at
