Re: [cobirds] CFO —communicating with fire victims

Please find below the information Governor Polis is sending out for resources, ways to help, etc.:

If you, your family, or your loved ones have been impacted by the Marshall Fire, please know that we will be here for you in every way possible as you rebuild. You are not alone.

Resources For Those Impacted:

Please click here for additional resources available to you, including links to emergency status updates, evacuation centers, and road closure updates.

If you have not been directly impacted, there are many ways to help your fellow Coloradans who are hurting right now. If you can make a monetary donation, please click here to donate to the Boulder County Wildfire Fund.

Other Ways to Help: 

  • Boulder Office of Emergency Management: If you have shelter to offer displaced residents, please sign up to be a vetted host at Airbnb.com and you will be alerted through the Airbnb Open Homes Program if needed. They are also encouraging donations of household items to local non-profit thrift stores. More info: https://bouldercounty.wufoo.com/forms/donations/
  • YMCA of Northern Colorado is accepting donations (blankets, pillows, dog & cat food) at their location: 2800 Dagny Way, Lafayette, CO 80026. Please follow their updates for what supplies are needed: https://twitter.com/YMCANOCO

Thank you for looking out for your neighbors during this devastating time. We will get through this together.

Sincerely,

Gov. Jared Polis

Many of us are feeling empathy for our unfortunate CFO family members caught in the path of disaster in Boulder County and Broomfield. If you are a victim and would like to reach out to the birding community for assistance, you may do so using Cobirds or the CFO Facebook page. Posting rules will be relaxed to permit this sort of communication until Jan 31, as authorized by the CFO executive committee.

CFO President

"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
