Synchronized Chaos Magazine expresses compassion for all those affected by the wildfires in L.A. and support for those who are fighting them.
You may send cards here to be delivered to firefighters who are part of a program where incarcerated people in California may spend some of their sentences assisting fire crews.

Alternatively, you may add a message for the fire fighters on this document, with your name and country, and we’ll print and mail it. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GCuvUmTTeexJMGlQ_7tUIFyldJyDvygTSwCpR_41-_8/edit?pli=1&tab=t.0
You may also donate books for kindergarten through high school to replace school libraries that have burned, or request books if you are a teacher in the L.A. area, by filling out this form for an effort led by young adult author and teacher Veronica Bane: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScW0VHXo3teTViHaFTHdEyqrIkXalQ75lXvXywQ3Qbij4jhew/viewform
Books don’t have to be new and you don’t have to be the author or publisher to donate. All they ask is that the books be in good condition.
Alternatively, you can send elementary titles directly to one school, to librarian Yvette Pompa.
