In late June, wildfires began burning across Southern and Western Colorado amid hotter, drier climate conditions. Organizations and volunteers have acted quickly to provide shelter, meals, and emergency supplies to those impacted by the fires, including the Snyder Fire, Gold Mountain Fire, Ferris Fire, Willow Fires, and Aspen Acres Fires.
We will be supporting these efforts through our Critical Needs Fund.
From July 1 through August 1, 2026, 100% of every gift will go directly to trusted nonprofits providing these essential services to support the individuals and families who have been affected by these fires. We will provide an updated list of organizations in the coming days and weeks as things continue to develop.
Join us by giving to the Critical Needs Fund.
Our total $50,000 gift was made possible by our permanent endowment, The Fund for Denver, to support the following organizations’ wildfire and recovery efforts:
- American Red Cross of Colorado
- United Way of Southern Colorado
- Humane Society of the Pikes Peak Region
- Western Colorado Community Foundation
