Throughout the day, there was a constant stream of people arriving at the Tiny Pine headquarters. Most stayed for hours, taking with other fire survivors, sharing their stories with each other, and just finding solace with others in the same situation as themselves. Thankfully, interspersed with some of those cars were people arriving to drop off donations of items in high demand: tents, sleeping bags, flashlights, diapers, dog and cat food, and a variety of other things.
Overall, we had a great first day of working and are looking forward to the next few days.
