NORTH COMPLEX FIRE
GRANT PROGRAM
This fund exists to raise money to support nonprofits and agencies providing immediate assistance to evacuees, animals and others impacted by fires in our area.
The North Complex Fire Grant Program is closed, however, you may still contribute the Wildfire Relief and Recovery Fund to support other relief efforts.
The Wildfire Relief & Recovery Fund supports the rebuilding and revitalization of communities throughout our region impacted by wildfire. Tragically, the wildfires have become more and more dangerous, happen more frequently and are incredibly destructive in recent years. More specifically our region has suffered immensely. The impact of these fires has been felt by everyone in our region, and it will take many years of collaborative work for us to rebuild and revitalize homes, health, and wellbeing for all of our neighbors.
Our goal is to work collaboratively with the nonprofit, government, philanthropic and private sectors to accelerate recovery and rebuilding to create a thriving, resilient and even stronger region.
In December 2021, the North Complex Fire Grant Program closed after granting a total of $1,167,940 for survivors.
