What it reported doing in 2015
Pateros/Brewster Fire Relief Fund (The "Fund") was established in response to the devasting wildfire damages suffered by the Pateros and Brewster communities.The Fund acted as intermediary between donors and qualified aid recipients - collecting and disbursing contributed monies. The Fund established criteria and levels of aid - utility payment, rebuilding assistance, rent assistance, and other needs. Those seeking assistance filed an application for funding. Those who met the criteria received $250 initially. Then based on needs, additional grant monies were awarded.In 2015, The Fund provided monetary assistance to 48 individuals/families (unduplicated count). Some recipients qualified for more than one level of aid.The Fund also gave $40,000 to the Pateros/Brewster Long Term Recovery Group, which will continue the effort in helping the Brewster-Pateros communities.
