Yakima community continues to raise money for fire victims
YAKIMA, Wash. -- As victims of the fire start the process of rebuilding their lives, folks in Yakima are rushing to the aid of their neighbors.
Fundraisers are going on across the valley this weekend, including washing cars. Neighbors showed up to this car wash at Owens Cycle.Miss Yakima County even got her hands wet cleaning the cars.
One volunteer says this the least they can do for those who lost
"We're still going to continue in the weeks to follow. I'm sure they have a long, hard road ahead of them and they want to be able to rebuild their lives and we'd like to help them do that," Sunshine Talbot said.
The event raised about $300 for the Red Cross. By the way if you're hosting a fundraiser, feel free to share the details with us on our Facebook page.

Is there an address to which donations can be sent to help victims of the fire? It would be helpful if your station could publicize the address here. Many in western Washington want to help, but don't know how to get donations to the right place.
