ABOUT US

The Aspen Wildfire Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to building long-term wildfire resilience throughout the Aspen area and connected landscapes.

We believe that protecting our community requires more than responding to wildfire after it begins. It requires proactive investment in prevention, preparedness, innovation, education, and partnerships that reduce risk before disasters occur.

Working alongside the Aspen Fire Protection District and regional partners, the Foundation mobilizes philanthropic support for projects that strengthen emergency response capabilities, improve forest health, expand community preparedness, and accelerate innovative wildfire technologies.

By bringing together donors, businesses, public agencies, nonprofit organizations, visitors and residents, we are helping build a community that is better prepared for the realities of a changing climate while protecting the landscapes and quality of life that define the Roaring Fork Valley.
