Want to help those affected by the Winter Wonderful Disaster?
One of the most important ways to help is by making a monetary donation.Please note: Items not needed may go to waste and get in the way of relief efforts.
Individuals who want to help are also asked to make a monetary donation to voluntary organizations.
If you do make a material donation, donate ONLY items specifically requested by authorities and bring them to official designated collection centers
Material donations are not being accepted through the site at this time
Used clothing is generally NOT needed following a disaster. Only donate if specifically requested
The HelpColoradoNow website will provide updates on material donations needed following a specific disaster
Meal donations from restaurants (no home cooked meals please) may be needed for some local personnel and organizations supporting response efforts. Restaurants wanting to donate meals should check this site following a disaster for information on how to donate (never bring food to a site unless it is requested)
Donations for VACANT rental properties and vacation homes can be listed through Colorado Housing Search. Please note donated rooms in homes can NOT be accepted.
Volunteers will be needed most during the long-term recovery phase, which will last month/years
