When something bad happens, we all want to help.
Here are some vetted local charitable organizations that are helping out:
Community Foundation (serving SW Colorado)
Food assistance groups are probably going to see increased demand. Healthy Archuleta has information on all the local food share organizations.
If your property was damaged in the recent flood, Archuleta County asks that you fill out a report.
Filling out a report helps local officials accurately estimate all the damage.
County officials note that filling out the form is simply reporting the damage. It's not an application for financial assistance.
The final tally is in from the food drive Archuleta Democrats sponsored on June 27 at Uncle's.
We raised $1200 to help our neighbors dealing with food insecurity. We also donated a carload of items to stock the shelves at Community United Methodist Church's Food Share.
We received this thank-you message from CUMC:
Community UMC Food Share thanks you for your generosity in donating food and funds to feed hungry neighbors and their pets in our community! This time of year is difficult for us because of a reduction in donations and grant money, so your contributions are especially appreciated!
If you missed the Chili Supper on Sept. 12, you missed a great time!
Candidates Barb Clementi, Katie Stewart, and Dwayne Romero reminded us all why we do this work: Because we believe in fairness, accountability, and the rule of law.
The Cattywampus String Band helped keep the vibe lively, and our door-prize winners went home happy!

Thanks to everyone who helped us decorate our float for the Fourth of July parade, participated in the parade, and helped with our display on National Parks in history tent at Yamaguchi Park.
Our float featuring Colorado Suffragettes got a warm reception along the parade route -- especially from women and girls!
