Our friends Forest Stewards Guild have a fundraiser to pass through where the need is greatest in Ruidoso. https://gofund.me/f38c38f2 If you haven't already supported the survivors of the South Fork and Salt wildfires, consider doing so through the FSG... The Guild is raising funds to pass-through to a local Ruidoso community organization to support evacuation centers and recovery for those that have lost their homes and livelihoods in the South Fork and Salt Wildfires. These still active fires have to date, caused the loss of approximately 1,400 structures and forced the evacuation of around 8,000 people. As you know, the costs of recovering from wildfire are extremely numerable and overwhelming to those that are recently traumatized. These funds will be passed through to a local non-profit organization that has awareness of their best use. Typical expenses include: gas cards, clothing, toiletries, medications, etc. As the situation continues to emerge, the Forest Stewards Guild (foreststewardsguild.org) is committed to passing funding through to a reputable organization. The Forest Stewards Guild is a nationwide non-profit that is based in New Mexico and has a proven track record of financial responsibility (Platinum Transparency from Guidestar) and a commitment to forests and the communities that live within and adjacent to them. The Forest Stewards Guild has close relationships with Ruidoso organizations involved in wildfire preparedness and forestry.

I'm excited to meet and support whomever ARWC's new Director of Forestry will be!
