Petaluma, California (October 23, 2017) — Optio Solutions, an accounts receivable management firm, is supporting staff members affected by the Tubbs Fire with paid time off and a crowdfunding campaign.
The agency’s corporate offices in Petaluma, Sonoma County were unharmed by the fires. In addition, services and data storage were safe while the company’s Disaster Recovery Plan was not launched.
The impact on the entire staff has been deep, however, including several employees who lost their 
homes. As a result, Optio is providing assistance via two programs:
- All employees who missed work hours due to the fires will receive Paid Time Off.
- A crowdfunding effort was launched via YouCaring to help those who lost their homes.
“Community giving is imprinted in our corporate culture,” said President and CEO Chris Schumacher, “including efforts to support education, natural disasters and programs such as the American Cancer Society. This time, we are helping our own.”
The Optio staff recently contributed a total of $2595 to Hurricane Harvey relief efforts via the American Red Cross.
All donations received via YouCaring will be distributed directly to the affected Optio employees.
