With temperatures expected to dip dangerously low this weekend in Colorado, warming centers and shelters are opening along the front range for those in need.
Governor Polis issued a disaster declaration on Thursday, which activates the Colorado State Emergency Operations Plan and authorizes the use of the Colorado National Guard to help people stay safe during this deep freeze.
Catholic Charities of Denver is providing shelter at Samaritan Houses in Denver, Fort Collins, and Greeley. They have been able to help more people in recent weeks thanks to generous donations, but they still need more winter weather items!
ITEMS NEEDED: Coats, hats, gloves, and other cold weather items
DONATIONS ACCEPTED: 2301 Lawrence St., Denver
9 a.m. – 4 p.m. (M-F) and 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. (Sat. & Sun.)
