How EARTH Got Its Name
Thanks to braniac volunteer Mary Peterson, of Western Washington fame, Pagan Responders were given the name EARTH (Enabling All Reaching To Help).
Our invitation is for other Pagans living nation wide to also volunteer for disaster relief under the EARTH name and mission statement.
May we continue to organize, work collectively together and better serve our communities with the invaluable resources that only those from our unique backgrounds can provide.
