Direct Relief is a non-profit organization that provides medical supplies and funding to medical professionals working on the front lines of natural disasters.

GRAMARYE: WILDFIRE AWARENESS
DETAILS
For this event, Bay Area Kei is holding a charity drawing to bring awareness to the wildfires that ravaged our home state of California this past summer. We're hoping to draw attention to both the devastating impact of the fires, and the broader issue of climate change that impacts all of us. One of the ways to participate in the charity drawing is by donating to our recommended beneficiary, Direct Relief. Another way you can qualify for the charity drawing is by reposting our Wildlife Awareness post.
In order to qualify for this entry method, please fulfil all the following items:
Follow @bayareakei on Instagram.
Like our wildfire relief post, and tag a friend in the comments.
Repost the wildfire relief post to your main Instagram feed (not your stories!), and tag @bayareakei so we can see it!
Fill out the drawing entry form with a link to your completed post.

Please see below for a text version of the post:
CONTACT YOUR REPRESENTATIVES
Write to your state and federal representatives and demand stronger environmental regulations. Text RESIST to 50409 to find your reps and draft letters.
DONATE MONEY TO WILDFIRE RELIEF CHARITIES
Gramaryeās chosen beneficiary for this event is Direct Relief, but you can find a list of vetted charities to support on charitynavigator.org.
DONATE MONEY DIRECTLY TO VICTIMS
You can find and donate directly to victims of wildfire on GoFundMe. Many people who need help are from marginalized groups and are asking very little to help piece their lives back together, so even small amounts can make a world of difference.
DONATE BLOOD
Blood donations have gone down due to Covid-19. If you are able, giving blood would be a great help to victims and firefighters who have been hurt in a fire. You can find your nearest non-profit blood donation center by texting BLOOD to 50409.
VOLUNTEER
Many charities are seeking volunteers to help with food donations, shelter upkeep, blood donations, and more. There are even virtual volunteer opportunities for those sheltered in place.
EDUCATE YOURSELF ON CLIMATE CHANGE
While it is ultimately up to corporations, not individuals, to make effective change, it is important to make your voice heard and pressure them to take responsibility. Learn about environmental regulations and legislation and be informed.
