NOTE FROM THE EDITOR
Wildfires are raging in Southern California, leaving devastation in their wake.
The American Logistics Aid Network is currently providing emergency supplies to families and community members that have lost their homes and possessions in the wildfires — and you can help.
Please consider offering logistics services, warehouse space, trucks or supplies to support ALAN’s fire relief efforts, or make a donation. The American Red Cross is also accepting donations.
Better days are ahead. In the meantime, stay safe.
