One of our newest programs, 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 & 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 was developed to provide aid after the occurrence of natural disasters.

This program’s goal is to support, revitalize, and help communities recover from such disasters.

Our current focus is centered around the aftermath of the 2020 wildfires; Beachie Creek, Lion’s Head, P-515, and Echo Mountain fires impacting the Santiam Canyon and North Lincoln County areas.

For the last two years, we have been actively working to support and revitalize these areas, including helping impacted residents find shelter, replace vital documents, and get jobs.

In addition, our dedicated crew leaders continue to direct the response teams helping to restore the Breitenbush River and Northern Linn and Marion County forests and watershed areas to pre-fire conditions.
