Angora Fire Fund Extends Funding Timeline

South Lake Tahoe, CA. In an effort to ensure that all fire survivors have had an opportunity to apply for immediate funding needs the Board of Directors for the Angora Fire Fund voted last week to extend the deadline for applications.

“The original date established for immediate funding needs was August 30th. Based upon the fact that to date slightly fewer than 130 applications have been received and a fairly large number of those were received in the last week the board felt it was crucial to extend the original deadline” states Board President Mark Lucksinger. “We want to be certain that all of those families who may have immediate needs as school starts, summer draws to a close and the breadth of their situation may be more clear have an opportunity to apply.”

“The Angora Fire Fund is currently accepting applications and distributing funds to fire survivors who lost their primary residence. Upon verification of residency funds are being distributed to assist with immediate needs. Households that received $500 of the AFF money via the Sierra Community Church may be eligible to receive additional funding up based upon their immediate needs. Applications are available at either the California or Nevada Visitor Centers or at any Board Member’s Business. Board Members are listed on www.helptahoe.com and the application is also available on the website. Applications can be mailed to the post office box or given to any Board Member in a sealed envelope. Information about the specific applicants is considered confidential and will not be made public.”

Additional distributions will commence this autumn based upon available resources. A new application is not necessary to be considered for additional funds.

Donations are being accepted to the Angora Fire Fund in the following ways: online at www.helptahoe.com ; in person at any US Bank or mail to the Angora Fire Fund (Locals for Locals) PO Box 17640, South Lake Tahoe, CA 96151.

For further information please visit the website or contact any of the board members.
