My heart goes out to all of those impacted by the Marshall Fires. I know how important home is to each and every person and my heart breaks when I look at the pictures of what every person lost. But, your community is here to support you in this time of need. I love the Boulder, Louisville and Superior neighborhoods and have a wide reach of community members and community resources reaching out to provide the best they can. Below are the resources I have collected to help you navigate your way through these next couple of weeks.
