"I am so proud to work for a company where the employees and shareholders generously open their pocketbooks to help our neighbors in their moments of need. I encourage other individuals and businesses in the community to lend their support to the Fire Relief Fund, too," said Redwood Valley District Manager Gay Guidotti.
