A Touching Response
We have been touched by the many people who have expressed concern and asked us how they could help after the San Diego fires. Although we did remove some of our records as a precaution Floresta was not directly affected. However several of our board members were forced to evacuate and one lost significant property. We are currently looking for ways that Floresta can be involved in local reforestation and rebuilding efforts and in the meantime we are continuing to press forward in the effort to rebuild and reforest areas in other countries that have long been devastated.
