RAD Newsletter

We are blown away by the amazing response from the Fresno community to provide donations for the victims of the recent wildfires in Los Angeles. A special thank you to the venues that allowed us a space to collect the donations and to all of the volunteers that helped along the way! We will be joining forces with Dream Center here in LA to distribute the donations out to organizations across LA County to ensure every donation goes the best possible home. THANK YOU!!
