Ashcroft girl brightens the season for local fire departments with $6K donation
ASHCROFT, B.C. — Over the summer thousands of B.C. residents came together to help those who were displaced by the worst wildfire season on record.
Fire Departments worked tirelessly through the tense summer moths, ensuring the safety of their local communities.
Ashcroft and Cache Creek were among the first communities to be threatened by the unpredictable Elephant Hill wildfire this summer, the same fire that leveled Boston Flats and grew in size to more than 190,000 hectares.
During one of the darkest seasons for the area 11-year-old Khiara Archibald of Ashcroft was a beacon of light.
