Anyone who lost wages or tools of their trade due to the Marshall Fire may now be eligible for Wildfire Fund financial help via partnership between Boulder County and Community Foundation Boulder County

Apply online for Financial Assistance by visiting www.boco.org/MarshallFireAssistance, where an online application will be available along with more detail on the funding and how to qualify for it. Those who are determined eligible to receive this assistance will be contacted via text message or phone call within seven days from the date of application to pick up the funds.

“Tens of thousands of people have entrusted the Community Foundation Boulder County to support those that need it most in the wake of the Marshall and Middle Fork Fires. We have been working quickly to bring immediate relief to those affected while also collaborating closely with our government and community partners to understand the short- and long-term needs of those affected,” said Community Foundation Boulder County CEO Tatiana Hernandez. “Apart from the $5.5 million we have already distributed to over a thousand individuals and families with damaged or destroyed homes, we have also seen an important gap to fill for those who lost their livelihoods due to business closure or destruction. We are immediately disbursing an additional $1.5 million in direct assistance for those who lost wages or tools of the trade from various industries, such as plumbers, mechanics, electricians, healthcare workers, teachers, and service workers.”

Financial donations are still being sought through Community Foundation Boulder County’s Wildfire Fund at www.commfound.org to help Marshall Fire survivors.
