Community Spotlight for October: Wildland Firefighter Foundation

The forest fires this year have devastated those close to the tea shop community and continue to spread across the west coast. Along with collecting donations for those who have been affected by the fires, we dedicate October to the mighty firefighter 🤎

We have proudly partnered with the Wildland Firefighter Foundation. Their main focus is to help the families of firefighters killed in the line of duty, and to assist injured firefighters and their families. Since 1999 the foundation has provided emergency support services to firefighters and their families who often find themselves with few resources.

Your purchase in October 2020 will help say “thank you!”

Our Charity of the Month for January: Friends of the Children

Anyone who has met me knows that I am a kid advocate through and through. It is an incredible privilege to be able to dedicate 2020 to our youth. Our first month’s program, Friends of the Children, is a very special foundation. We all know that what children need is consistency and follow through, and this is the core concept of this program. The mentors (friends) provide our most vulnerable children a stable relationship with a professional mentor for 12.5 years, from kindergarten to high school graduation, no matter what! If you want to learn about this program, visit Friends of the Children on Facebook or the Friends of the Children website.
