Spokane Complex Fires
Ways to Help and Volunteer
The fires in our community have reminded us how quickly life can be disrupted—and how much we need one another in moments like this. As a church, we want to respond not only with prayer, but with practical love, caring for our neighbors in the ways we can.
Below, you’ll find ways to give, donate supplies, serve, and support those affected by the fires. We’ll continue updating this page as needs arise and new opportunities become available.
Please continue praying for those who have lost homes or possessions, those who have been displaced, the firefighters and first responders serving our community, and everyone working to help our neighbors recover.
1. Serve & Donate Through the Southside Food Pantry
Our food pantry has been listed as a resource for people impacted by the fires, which means people in our community may be coming to Southside for help.
You can support this ministry by donating non-perishable food or serving at one of our Saturday food distributions.
You can sign up to serve here:
2. Donate or Volunteer at the Spokane Region Long Term Recovery Group
The Spokane Region Long Term Recovery Group (SRLTRG) helps coordinate recovery services and resources for individuals, families, businesses, and communities affected by disasters in Spokane County. Formed after the 2023 Gray and Oregon Road wildfires, SRLTRG provides disaster case management and helps connect those impacted with the resources they need for both immediate needs and long-term recovery. SRLTRG also partners with churches and other community organizations to support their efforts to serve those affected by disaster. There are great opportunities to get help or get involved down below.
