Ashland.news team report

When wildfire season arrives, every minute and every decision matters.

That’s why Ashland.news has made wildfire preparedness one of our signature coverage areas, from reporting on Ashland Fire & Rescue’s community evacuation drill, to explaining the city’s Fire Adapted program, to breaking down local resilience planning.

This reporting doesn’t just inform. It helps keep our neighbors safe.

Today, Dec. 2, is Giving Tuesday, a day when people across the country support the organizations that make their communities stronger. If Ashland.news has helped you stay prepared, connected, or informed, we hope you’ll consider making a gift today.

And right now, every dollar you give locally is matched 1:1 by national philanthropic donors, doubling your impact for independent, nonprofit local reporting. Click here to support Ashland.news.

Your support makes possible:

  • Timely, trustworthy updates during wildfire season
  • Clear explainers on safety, readiness, and community response
  • Free access for all — so no neighbor is left uninformed in a crisis
