Donations began to flow<br \/>\ninto the Community Foundations of all three counties: Calaveras Community<br \/>\nFoundation, Amador Community Foundation and Sonora-Area Foundation. Our<br \/>\nneighboring county foundations redirected that flow to Calaveras Community<br \/>\nFoundation, which has been distributing funds to various organizations for post-fire<br \/>\nrelief efforts.<\/p>\n<p>The strength and support of this joint commitment to long-term recovery is<br \/>\ncharacteristic of our foothills community. When a need arises, we show up to help<br \/>\neach other. Calaveras Recovers is empowered in our rebuilding goals by this strong<br \/>\nsupport. The volunteers of Calaveras Recovers are grateful to the partner agencies,<br \/>\nthese three Community Foundations for confirming that support for us when it is<br \/>\nneeded most.<\/p>\n<p>In the aftermath of the fire, Calaveras Recovers was created as an all-volunteer<br \/>\ngroup of local leaders to address the Long-Term Recovery needs of those who had<br \/>\npaid off and owned their destroyed homes but were unable to acquire or afford<br \/>\ninsurance. Working with non-profit and faith-based organizations, Calaveras<br \/>\nRecovers is organizing the rebuilding of homes for those who otherwise would not be<br \/>\nable to recover. Their purpose is to help assess what is needed for the long-term<br \/>\nrecovery of our watershed environment and the emotional and spiritual needs of the<br \/>\nsurvivors. Calaveras Recovers is now recognized by FEMA, CalOES and Calaveras<br \/>\nCounty as the long-term recovery team for unmet needs and participates in the<br \/>\nCalaveras County Butte Fire Recovery Task Force.<\/p>\n<p>Calaveras Recovers includes private, nonprofit, and government entities<br \/>\nworking as a collective body of support for those who do not have adequate personal<br \/>\nresources for basic needs as a result of the Butte Fire disaster. Calaveras Recovers is<br \/>\ngrowing from an independent network of agencies supporting individuals hurt by the<br \/>\nwild fire into an entity able to carry on the work of long-term recovery, specifically by<br \/>\nbuilding new homes for those survivors who were uninsured.<\/p>\n<p>More information on Calaveras Recovers, the post-Butte Fire long-term<br \/>\nrecovery team, can be found on the website www.CalaverasRecovers.org and via<br \/>\nmail at P.O.Box 395, Mountain Ranch, CA 95246.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mountain Ranch, CA&#8230;At the beginning of the new year, plans are underway for a unified effort in three counties to help Butte Fire survivors.
