We want to thank all of the first responders and volunteers for dedicating their time and risking their safety to help the areas affected. We are so grateful for what organizations like Team Rubicon do and ask you to join us in supporting their efforts in providing aid to our community and others around the world impacted by natural disasters.” – Charlie and Cindy Morton
