Spokane Complex Wildfire Response

Wildfires burning across Spokane, Washington, have forced roughly 65,000 people to evacuate and destroyed more than 700 structures, with officials still assessing the full scope of the damage. Nearly 900 crews and the National Guard are working to contain the fires, as families are now navigating the loss of their homes and the long road to recovery ahead.

Innovia Foundation, the community foundation serving Eastern Washington and North Idaho, has opened the Spokane Complex Wildfire Response Fund to direct 100% of donations to vetted nonprofits providing immediate relief and long-term rebuilding support to affected families.
