SACRAMENTO, Calif., Nov. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- The Western Manufactured
Housing Communities Association Foundation (WMA Foundation) announced today
that it had provided direct financial assistance to residents in a
manufactured housing community in Fallbrook devastated by the recent fires.
The WMA Foundation has been working with affected mobile home park owners
to identify those residents who were not insured and most in need of
assistance.
"The WMA Foundation wants to help mobile home park residents in their
most desperate time of need. Our efforts to help residents will continue
because communication with displaced and evacuated residents has been
difficult," says Bill Schweinfurth, WMA Foundation Co-President.
To date, the WMA Foundation has given a total of $8,000 to 8 residents
of the Valley Oaks Mobile Ranch in Fallbrook, CA. The totals will likely
increase as the Foundation contacts additional victims.
The WMA Foundation is a California public benefit corporation,
established in 2005 for the purpose of enriching the quality of life for
all persons living in manufactured housing communities in California who
are disadvantaged due to income or circumstance. The WMA Foundation
sponsors educational seminars, provides financial assistance for the
improvement, restoration or replacement of existing manufactured homes,
disseminates informational materials and provides community outreach
services.
