We understand that the Hawk fire has unexpectedly displaced many residents, if you need diapers for your little ones you can do a one time emergency pick up with just your ID, so we can verify that you are in an evacuation zone.

If you are willing and able to donate please consider donating to diapers, wipes and unopened formula to WACCS!

Entendemos que el incendio Hawk ha desplazado inesperadamente a muchos residentes. Si necesita pañales para sus pequeños, puede realizar una recogida de emergencia por única vez presentando únicamente su identificación, para que podamos verificar que se encuentra en una zona de evacuación.

Si tiene la posibilidad y desea ayudar, ¡considere donar pañales, toallitas húmedas y fórmula sin abrir a WACCS!
