By now we’ve all heard about the terrible tragedy that hit our neighbors in the Oso/Darrington area and many of us are wondering how we can best offer some help. Here is a great list of places to donate which is being updated daily by the Everett Herald.
Be careful if you are approached to give money to organizations you haven’t heard of. State officials warn that scam artists might try to take advantage of the situation by posing as legitimate charities. The Secretary of State has more advice on donating wisely on its website; the governor’s website also has information about this and much more.
Many thanks to the Everett Herald for sharing this information.
You can support the San Juan Update by doing business with our loyal advertisers, and by making a one-time contribution or a recurring donation.
