Northern Nevada is once again facing the heartbreak and uncertainty brought by a fast-moving wildfire. ⁠ ⁠ The Hawk Fire has burned more than 15,000 acres and remains 0% contained. Nearly 90,000 residents are under evacuation orders or warnings, and six people, including three first responders, have been injured. ⁠ ⁠ Our hearts are with everyone forced to leave home and with every family waiting for answers. We are deeply grateful to the first responders, volunteers, nonprofit partners, and government agencies who are working tirelessly to protect our community. ⁠ ⁠ The 2026 Northern Nevada Wildfire Relief Fund supports local organizations that assist affected residents throughout the long-term recovery process. ⁠ ⁠ Thanks to a generous $50,000 donation from the Greg Nelson–Warren Nelson Family, we'll match every new gift dollar for dollar as long as funds remain—doubling your impact when our neighbors need it most. ⁠ ⁠ Donate today: https://cfnn.fcsuite.com/erp/donate/create/fund?funit_id=3839 ⁠ ⁠ Those wishing to donate physical goods or other resources should submit an offer using the Washoe County EOC’s Washoe County Fires Aug 2026 form. The donations management team will review each offer and contact donors directly to coordinate next steps: ⁠ ⁠ https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfA1k4FiV-E-zoaOUKN3M4UUC5hGtNbJLehJCQEKcjZR4PAeA/viewform ⁠ ⁠ Together, we can help Northern Nevada recover and rebuild.

Northern Nevada is facing the Bug and Stallion wildfires, which are creating urgent challenges and straining local response resources. In response, the Community Foundation of Northern Nevada has established the 2026 Northern Nevada Wildfire Relief Fund to provide resources to local organizations leading relief and recovery efforts. Donations will assist displaced residents, care for affected animals, aid first responders, and address other critical priorities as conditions evolve. When our neighbors need help, our region comes together. Please consider making a gift and sharing the fund with others who want to contribute.
