Metropolis of San Francisco Distributed over $20,000 to Families Devastated by Fires

SAN FRANCISCO — Thanks to the generosity of the National Philoptochos and the faithful across the Archdiocese, the Greek Orthodox Metropolis of San Francisco distributed over $20,000 in relief to families devastated by the fires in Northern California and the Pacific Northwest. The Metropolis continues to monitor fires that are presently impacting other parts of the Metropolis, and are prepared to support more families who have been displaced or suffered loss of property due to the fires.

These are just a few images from some of the people who were assisted. May God continue to give them strength!
