Ashes to Action: Eldora's Donation Match Challenge for Nederland Fire
Eldora Mountain’s Nederland Fire Relief Donation-Match Challenge
To help our neighbors in the town of Nederland recover and rebuild from catastrophic losses suffered in the October 9 fire that devastated the Caribou Village Shopping Center, Eldora will match all donations to its philanthropic arm, The Play Forever Fund, between now and Opening Day. Every dollar raised, up to $10,000, will directly support local businesses as they work to reopen their doors and restore the vibrant spirit of Nederland’s downtown community.
The businesses affected by the fire include Augustina’s Winery, Brightwood Music, Boulder County Sheriff Substation, Columbine Family Care, Dam Liquor Store, Greener Mountain Indoor Gardening, Mountain Man Outdoor Store, Nederland Chiropractic, Nederland Art Studios, O’Neil Rocky Mountain Art, Oriental Healing Clinic, Picasso Hair Studio, Spinning Silica Art Collective, Tadasana Mountain Yoga, The Laundry Room LLC, The Shop Consignment, The Very Nice Brewing Company, Tres Gringos, and Wild Bear Mountain Ecology Center.
Through community generosity and Eldora’s matching commitment to provide local relief, the Play Forever Fund will help ensure that the heart of Nederland remains strong, united, and resilient for years to come.
