If you wish to help, the following organizations are providing food, shelters, and emergency supplies and equipment.

The inaugural Duck Dash at Raging Waters at Cal Expo in Sacramento will take place Saturday, June 15. Thousands of rubber ducks will float down an 800-foot-long lazy river, racing to the finish line to win prizes and raise funds for the Child Life Program at Sutter Children’s Center. Community members are encouraged to adopt a duck – or a paddling of ducks – and cheer them on during the 5 p.m. race.

Funds raised by The Duck Dash will be used to start music therapy services in the Child Life Program at Sutter Children’s Center. Music therapists from McConnell Music Therapy Services use a variety of techniques that have been proven to be effective in helping children and adolescents reach a wide range of goals through music.
