Extinguish Flames of Fear for California Sports Officials

Jan 16th, 2025

When fleeing for your life from an unprecedented fire threat, your officiating gear is not going to be part of the evacuation plan. The lives affected by California wildfires are not just those of celebrities, but those of your fellow sports officials. For this reason, when disaster strikes, we step up and support sports officials in their time of need.

By teaming up with us, we can help officials who have lost their gear and apparel get back in the game when the game is ready to be played. To date, we have donated $2,150 in gear and apparel.

Please help by following the steps below to purchase an e-Gift Card from Ump Attire (any denomination). We will match or exceed any amount to help replace gear and/or apparel for fellow officials in need.

  1. Click this Ump Attire e-Gift Card link
  2. Select the amount
  3. The Recipient's Email address should be entered as office@ump-attire.com
  4. Under the Message section, write "for California Fires"
  5. Add to cart and proceed to checkout to complete purchase


Please let us know if you would prefer to remain anonymous (in the gift card message section); otherwise, your name will be shared with the recipient of this donation.

Let's take one weight off affected sports official's shoulders and get them their gear back!
