California Wildfire Relief 

We’re lifetime California residents here at Kauer HQ and while we’ve learned to live with fire season up here in Northern California, we’re absolutely devastated and heartbroken for all of our effected SoCal friends. To do what we do best we’ve decided to raffle some instruments in cooperation with our friends at Lollar Guitars, DRS Racks and a few other items in order to raise much needed relief funds. How does it work?

It’s simple, for every $20 USD you donate to any variety of places (some recommendations below) just show us a receipt and you’ll get a spot on our list. Spread it around or donate all to one place, whatever your preference is. We want all the donations done directly and not thru us. We’ve already raised $5000 from a generous guitar donation by our great friend Mike Adams and Doug Kauer donated one of his personal guitars. We will be drawing raffle names Jan 31st 2025.

Email in your receipts to relief@kauerguitars.com (recommend send us an email first then the attachments to avoid going to spam)

Suggested places to donate:

• World Central Kitchen is one of Doug Kauer’s personal favorites. Donate here

• Music Cares is directly involved in helping musicians effected by the fire recover. Donate here

• The LA Food Bank is always a good recommendation

• Evan is a former employee of ours who lost everything, this is his GoFundMe

• Katie and Josh are friends of Mike Adams and he would appreciate it if you supported their GoFundMe

There’s countless more and we’re adding to this list as we can. Please do not feel limited to our suggestions, if you have a friend or an organization you want to support please do!
