Marshall Fire Response Fund

​

Ascent has created a fund to meet the needs of our community as we respond to the Marshall Fire. We know that recovery takes years not weeks and we want to continue to care for those impacted for the long haul.

For Those In Need:

  • Support through Prayer - We believe in the power of prayer at Ascent and in a God who "is close to the brokenhearted" (Psalm 34:18). We are in this with you, share how we can pray with and for you or request a call from our Prayer Team.

​

  •  Legal Aid Clinic - The East County Housing Opportunity Coalition (ECHO) announces a generous donation from Ascent Community Church in Louisville to help provide no-cost legal services to fire survivors. ECHO is making free legal services available through the law office of Stephen Hennessy to Marshall Fire survivors. Those affected by the fire can request legal assistance on the ECHO website, https://www.echocolorado.com/legal-clinic-ii by downloading the form for requesting legal services and submitting it there. ECHO has been doing interviews with renters post-fire and has found that many of them have issues regarding consumer protection practices and habitability of units post-fire. Many renters have spent their own time and effort to secure remediation and may need legal assistance in reimbursements. The resources from Ascent Community church should provide ECHO resources to manage these free legal services through the end of May. So, sign up right away if you need legal assistance. ECHO will manage these free legal services through the end of May. So, sign up right away if you need legal assistance.

  • Additional Living Expenses (ALE) Coverage - ALE provides you with money that allows you to maintain your normal lifestyle and compensates you for the extra costs of living elsewhere when your home is destroyed or uninhabitable. The coverage lasts until your home is repaired or until the policy limit is reached. Anyone with home, condo, or renter's insurance is eligible.
     

  • Car Insurance Settlement and Replacement Help - The staff and ownership at AutoSearch USA are deeply saddened over the losses our friends and neighbors have incurred from the devastation of the Marshall fire.  As 28 year residents of Superior we deeply mourn your loss and as many, are looking for ways to help get our neighbors back on their feet. We are experts in negotiating with insurance companies regarding total vehicle losses and will help you maximize the value you receive from your insurance settlement.  We are not an insurance company but have helped our clients negotiate higher vehicle  insurance settlements for the last 21 years. We would like to offer you the opportunity to discuss any automotive loss you might have suffered.  Furthermore and if appropriate we can assist you in obtaining a NEW or Pre-Owned replacement vehicle in this inventory restricted car market.  We are WAIVING ALL OUR FEES as a way to assist our community in this time of need.  Please contact our office at 303-247-9300  to discuss any and all your questions and we can begin your vehicle replacement process promptly.

  • Opportunity to help our adopted school, Coal Creek! Conscious Alliance is looking for volunteers who can help deliver food support to families as well as assist with school-based dinner distributions taking place each week until spring break at Fireside, Coal Creek, Monarch K-8 and Superior. The school-based program provides restaurant prepared meals at afternoon dismissal for the whole school community as a response of care to the Louisville and Superior community. They have at least 100 meals each day. They generally set up before afternoon dismissal and provide dinners for the community until they are gone. If you're interested in volunteering, please complete this form.
