On Wednesday, July 29th, a fire raged through Quincy, burning several structures including several homes, the brewing operations for Quintopia Brewing Company, the costume and prop building for our local community theatre and children's drama program, and the building for Plumas Crisis Intervention and Resource Center (PCIRC).
Sadly, PCIRC's home office, their entire supply for the local food bank, and their supply of PPE slated for distribution in the county were all lost in the fire.
Our hearts go out to our friends and partners at PCIRC and everyone impacted by this tragedy in Quincy. Throughout the Sierra there are countless examples of tenacity, grit, and community in the face of adversity through fire, but that doesn't make it any less devastating when it happens.
Please join us in supporting the PCIRC's recovery efforts. To donate to the PCIRC and other impacted organizations, please follow the links below.
