Welcome Opulent Philanthropy Inc.,/Disaster Relief California Wildfires

We are working to assist those affected, but there is a dire need for shelter, food, and water due to the rising number of displaced families.  A fast-moving wildfire scorching through Northern California has destroyed dozens of homes and is creating dangerous smoke conditions in regions farther north. The Mosquito Fire has burned through nearly 49,000 acres and has gutted at least 25 single occupancy residences in El Dorado and Placer counties. More than 11,000 people in the region have been ordered to evacuate. Both the El Dorado and Tahoe National Forests are closed because of the Mosquito Fire, officials said. The fire is so intense that the smoke being emitted is producing hazardous air quality conditions for states farther north and east. Large plumes of smoke were seen covering the city of Reno, Nevada.   

• We are working to assist those affected, but there is a dire need for shelter, food, and water due to the rising number of displaced families. Thousands evacuate, several homes destroyed after large fire erupts in Northern California. A fast-moving fire in Northern California injured several people and destroyed multiple homes on Friday as thousands of residents were forced to leave immediately, jamming roadways at the start of a sweltering Labor Day weekend. Several people were injured and taken to a hospital.  The Mill Fire started on the property of Roseburg Forest Products, a lumber mill north of the town of Weed, and quickly burned through homes and prompted evacuation orders for all of Weed and the nearby communities of Lake Shastina and Edgewood, with a combined population of about 7,500 people.
