Seven Aid: Wildfire Relief for San Diego


As parts of San Diego County are being evacuated due to the fires, we ask that you would continue to pray for our entire region. Many people are in desperate need of help. Del Mar Faigrounds, and Qualcomm Stadium are no longer taking evacuees or donations. Instead, city officials are asking that goods should be dropped off at the following Salvation Army location:

Salvation Army Kroc Center
6845 University Avenue
San Diego, CA 92115

You may contact them at (619) 287-5762 or browse through their website to learn more.

Food, blankets, cots, and water are their greatest needs. Chula Vista High School, San Diego High School, Casa Familar & Recreational Center, and the Rock Church are just a few of the new places where people can now take shelter. If you would like to help or would like to learn more, please visit the following...
