Safety Harbor legend Gigglewaters (737 Main St #104) is crafting cocktails to help those affected by the California wildfires.
Gigglewaters will donate $5 from every Pacific cocktail to The California Community Foundation toward its Wildfire Recovery Fund to aid those affected by the fires. The nonprofit has provided more than $32 million in relief to wildfire victims since 2003.

The Pacific is made with Rumhaven Rum, Blue Curacao, pineapple, and fresh lime.
This disaster hits close to home, as many in Pinellas County are still recovering from the devastating hurricanes this summer. The resiliency and care permeating this community are commendable. We appreciate local spots such as Gigglewaters that find ways to help even from thousands of miles away.
How to help those affected by the wildfires from Florida
In an interview with ABC Action News, Gigglewaters owner Fine Wilson notes that she lived in one of the areas currently being evacuated — and has many friends there.
From Florida, you can contribute to verified GoFundMe accounts (via Them) raising money for emergency supplies and housing. The Mutual Aid Los Angeles Network (MALAN) has compiled a spreadsheet of businesses and community organizations providing and/or requesting assistance.
