As wildfires continue to spread across the state, the Oregon Cattlemen s Association is seeking donations to its Wildfire Stewardship Fund.
All donations will go to Oregon ranchers impacted by wildfires this year. The association will also distribute funds to rangeland fire protection agencies and volunteer firefighters.
In addition to financial donations, the association is also seeking medical supplies and nutritional supplements for cattle, especially for those in the Klamath area, where the Bootleg Fire has done massive damage.
Supplies to rebuild fences are also needed, said OCA communications director Robyn Smith.
Those who wish to receive funding can complete an application â scheduled to be released on the OCA website this fall.
MEDFORD, Ore. Some fire relief is coming to the Oregon Cattlemen’s Association through an effort by Grange Co-Op.
The financial aid is part of the “Grange Gives” campaign as the co-op pledges to match up to $5,000 raised by customers.
All of the stores now offer customers to round-up at the register which will go to help cattlemen devastated by the Bootleg Fire.
“Over 10,000 cattle have been effected and displaced,” Youth and Community Outreach Coordinator, Demetria Marical, said. “The already depleted resources for feed and hay due to the extreme drought in Klamath County has drastically reduced the resources available to producers,” she added.
