Thanks to all of your thoughts and prayers this week. I am blessed to say that everyone in our office is safe and well, and we’re back in action at James Ray International. As you can tell from the map, the burn area (red) didn’t reach our neighborhood (our office is the blue pin).

There are still several thousand people out of their homes and over a billion (!) dollars in property damage, so please continue to send your thoughts this way as San Diego will be rebuilding for quite some time.

If you’d like to contribute to those affected by the fire, please check out these resources:

• A toll-free hotline has been established by the governor’s office for businesses interested in making large quantity donations. The number is 800-750-2858.
• Individuals interested in donating items or volunteering to support relief efforts should contact the Red Cross at 800-733-2767.
