2007 San Diego Wild Fires - Part 2
The fires started almost 3 weeks ago and they are finally contained. Not out, but contained. Area churches and the aforementioned charities are still working to help the fire victims cope. It will be a long process. I personally know of at least one family who has still not been able to cut through all the bureaucratic red tape and rebuild the home that burned in 2003!
Some of the insurance companies are advertising how helpful they will be to the families who lost everything. Maybe I'm jaded after the 2003 fires and Katrina, but that advertising comes across like a Pollyanna smoke screen. It really is not believable at all. There are in business to make money, not to help people. They will only pay what they cannot get away with not paying.
File your claims, because you paid your premiums and you are entitled to be reimbursed for your loss. Then visit one of the churches who have set up assistance programs for fire victims.
