Help Aspen Acre Fire Victims
The Aspen Acres Fire has devastated southern Colorado and is one of the largest fires we've ever seen.
People have been displaced, evacuations continue, homes have been lost, and the fire has impacted over 91,000 acres.
Southern Colorado Labor Council is collecting information on member needs so that we can be responsive with hotels, food, and basic living assistance. Please use this form to let us know what you members need.
Marisa Lopez is compiling a list of local restaurants offering free meals for evacuees and first responders. Please share this.
SCLC is hosting a benefit fundraiser on Friday, July 10, from 6-8 pm at the United Steelworkers Hall, 1414 E Evans, Pueblo. All funds raised will be used to support union members in need due to the fire. I'll send a letter shortly to request funds from local and state bodies. We're asking for $20-$50 donations online for individuals but would take any amount at the door also. Impacted member households should come at no cost. (The flyer for this is attached and you can donate here.)
If you're able, please consider a donation. Thanks for all your help.
