Fire Adapted Colorado (our friends know us as FACO)
is Colorado's Network for Wildfire Resilience
Ours is the only organization focused on connecting and serving the professionals working on wildfire mitigation, adaptation, and resilience throughout Colorado. Wildfire won't wait. Neither can we! By working together across management boundaries and sharing information and resources, we are more effective at improving wildfire outcomes.
Your donation helps the practitioners working on mitigation and adaptation who rely on FACO and need all the help and resources we can provide. (We serve 271 people in 106 organizations and agencies, and growing!)

You will also support our outreach and training to local leaders working on mitigation, especially in underserved communities. We provide everything they need to start initiatives in their neighborhoods, including outreach and volunteer recruitment strategies, information and training materials, etc. In 2024, we trained more than 100 Neighborhood Ambassadors! We even provide small grants that help launch local projects, such as chipper days.

Expenses should never hinder anyone working on wildfire resilience.
FACO provides its most urgently needed services, resources, and programs free of charge.
You can help FACO continue to provide valuable information, coaching, and resources to the people and organizations working to protect Colorado (yes, in your community, too!).
Make a gift today and together we will improve outcomes!
Thank you for being part of Colorado's wildfire adaptation team.
