When multiple wildfires began raging early Monday morning in towns an hour north of San Francisco,Watch Hana ni Keda Mono: Second Season Online residents fled their homes with little more than the clothes they were wearing and whatever valuables they could grab.
The fast-moving flames incinerated entire neighborhoods in the city of Santa Rosa with little to no warning.

The blazes, which rank as one of the worst wildfire disasters in California's history, are not yet close to full containment.
As people await news about their homes or cope with losing everything they owned, there are ways you can help from near and far:
Many survivors and evacuees have started GoFundMe campaigns so they can begin searching for housing and replacing essential items. GoFundMe has created a centralized hub for these campaigns and verified that the people behind them have indeed been affected by the fires. There are currently dozens of personal fundraisers, including campaigns for a young girl who lost her prosthetic legs and wheelchair, a family expecting their third child, and a woman who lost her home, livestock, and several dogs.

Organizations that work in Sonoma and Napa counties are scrambling to not only cope with their own losses but also continue helping people severely affected by the fires. The Community Foundation Sonoma County has started a "resilience fund" so that it can support nonprofits providing direct service to survivors. The Napa Valley Community Foundation has its own disaster relief fund that will go toward local nonprofits. United Way of the Wine Country is also receiving donations for fire relief and recovery.

The fires have not only destroyed homes; they've also made it difficult for people to work. Local residents are worried about their ability to both eat and make a living. Donating to a local food bank can help shore up short- and long-term resources. Here are three to choose from: Redwood Empire Food Bank, Fort Bragg Food Bank, and Community Action of Napa Valley.
Animals and livestock were left behind or separated from their owners during the fires. Local shelters are still assessing their needs, but you can support their efforts to care for and potentially find new homes for animals by donating to the Sonoma Humane Society and Napa Humane (the Humane Society of Napa County & SPCA). The San Francisco SPCA also has a disaster fund to aid displaced and injured animals.

If you live nearby, there are multiple ways to volunteer. Airbnb hosts in the area can provide free shelter to evacuees through the company's Open Homes program. The Red Cross is operating local shelters with the help of volunteers. You can contact the Volunteer Center of Sonoma County to learn about opportunities to help. Many of the shelters have stopped taking food and clothing donations, so be sure to check need before arriving with items to give.
