LAKE COUNTY COVID-19 RESOURCES
If you can afford to do so, please consider donating to help Lake County families in need during this time.” Lake County Build a Generation is currently directing 100% of all donations towards community relief efforts. In partnership with Full Circle and the Lake County Disaster Relief Fund, we are each focusing on an area of financial relief, and funds are being distributed collaboratively. Lake County Build a Generation is currently focused on providing housing assistance, and will adjust focus as needed. Housing assistance is currently our community’s greatest unmet need, according to local data–followed by utilities, food and other human services needs. Tax-deductible donations can be made through our website at http://lcbag.org/donate/ or by sending a check to PO Box 1302, Leadville, CO 80461.
