Our Hearts Are with California During This Difficult Time

California is no stranger to wildfires, but each season brings challenges that test the resilience of its communities. To all those affected by the recent devastating wildfires, we want you to know that our thoughts and prayers are with you. Your safety and well-being remain our top priorities.

During times like these, preparation and awareness can save lives. Please take a moment to review these critical disaster and fire safety tips to ensure you and your loved ones remain safe.


Before and During Evacuation:

1. Follow Evacuation Orders Promptly:
When local authorities instruct you to evacuate, do so without delay. Pre-plan an emergency evacuation route and have an emergency plan in place for all family members, including pets.

2. Wear Protective Gear:
Wildfires produce harmful smoke and ash. Protect your lungs by covering your nose and mouth with a mask or cloth.

3. Plan Multiple Routes:
Fires can quickly block roads, so it's vital to have several escape routes mapped out in advance.

4. Keep Emergency Kits Ready:
Prepare a kit with essential items, including:

  • Bottled water and non-perishable food
  • Flashlights and extra batteries
  • First aid supplies
  • Copies of important documents
  • Medications and a phone charger

5. Stay Informed:
Monitor updates from reliable sources like local emergency services, the National Weather Service, or Cal Fire. Social media can also provide real-time information, but rely only on verified accounts.


After Evacuation:

1. Wait for Clearance:
Returning to a fire-damaged area too soon can be dangerous. Wait for local authorities to declare it safe to re-enter your home.

2. Document Damage:
When it's safe to return, take clear photos of any damage to your property. This documentation will be critical when filing insurance claims.

3. Stay Updated:
Conditions can change rapidly. Continue to follow local news and updates for new safety instructions or resources available to affected communities.


We Stand with You

Wildfires test our strength as individuals and as a community. In these challenging times, we are reminded of the importance of supporting one another. Whether it’s offering shelter, donating resources, or simply being a source of encouragement, every action matters.

If you have questions about your insurance coverage or need help navigating your recovery process, we are here for you. Together, we will weather this storm and rebuild stronger than ever.

Stay safe, stay prepared, and stay connected.
