We are so grateful for the fearless work of fire crews, the dedication of volunteers, the support of communities helping neighbors, and the kindness of small businesses who are donating their time and resources to help support those affected by the Holiday Farm Fire on the McKenzie.

Want to help? Here is a list of ways to participate in ongoing recovery efforts that can be rewarding and even tasty! Whether you have the ability to donate money, your time or purchase from businesses who are donating proceeds, here are ways you can be a part of our community's support. We'll keep adding to this list as we learn of more opportunities.

Buy to Give Back

Ninkasi Brewing

All proceeds will be donated to McKenzie River Trust and Greenhill Humane Society when you enjoy September Citrus beer sold at the new Better Living Room. In order to have the maximum impact, this will continue until the beer is sold out. 

Hop Valley Brewing

Now through October, every case of Hop Valley beer bought in our lovely state means $2 to wildfire disaster relief. They hope to raise up to $250,000. Considering how much beer is consumed in Oregon every day, this feels like a very reachable goal. Cheers to community support!

Wild & Scenic Film Festival

This year's Wild & Scenic Film Festival presented by the Upper Willamette Stewardship Network will be held online. Proceeds for this beautiful and informative showing are going to support ongoing fire relief efforts in Lane County. The McKenzie River is one of the original designated Wild & Scenic Rivers in Oregon. This online event takes place on November 19, 2020.
