With deteriorating air quality here in Whatcom County, it’s hard not to think about our neighbors on the east side of the Cascades. We’re builders, and it breaks our hearts to see so many homes and livelihoods lost in the Spokane Complex Fires.

For anyone that has the ability to help, we’ve put together a list of resources at the link in our bio. Whether you can donate monetarily or plan to travel east and can bring donated goods, there are plenty of ways to help out.

If you know of any other resources, let us know in the comments and we’ll add those links to the list.
