Craigslist Users Offer Support For High Park Victims

I am an avid user of Craigslist.org and frequent the "free" section on a daily basis. It was a pleasant surprise to see our community come together when I started noticing community members offering assistance to the High Park fire victims.

With the burn reaching nearly 55,000 acres it is heartbreaking to think of how many people are affected by the fire, and how many of those people have animals that were cared for on their properties.  It is however such a pleasant thing to see families offering their services from horse boarding to inviting people into their homes and turning garage sales into fundraisers.

Many of people have been asking the question, "how can I help?" Well there are many ways that you can assist the victims of the High Park fire.
