With our focus on sustainability and forest fire mitigation, we are excited to announce how our 2023 profits will be used. Like last year, we have donated 100% of profits towards forest fire mitigation projects through our collaboration with the Elk Creek Fire department and their Wildland Fuels Crew. We are grateful to our community for supporting us and believing in our mission. Together, we can create a safer and greener future.
How the funds will be used:
Our funds will go towards implementing 10 acres of forest health treatments along a secondary egress route in Jefferson County Colorado. The overall objective is to reduce the hazard of extreme wildfire impingement on the emergency egress road.
The fuels crew will specifically be removing trees and brush by hand, along with mechanical work and mastication. All slash will be chipped and hauled off the area. All logs will be stacked adjacent to the road for use as firewood. This work will be completed by October 1st 2024.
We also have an exciting funds donation match that we will expand upon in later posts and provide further transparency on how much we’ve donated in the last 3 years of business.
Partnering for a Purpose:
Through our collaboration with local fire departments and their Wildland fuels crews, we have been able to channel our efforts towards effective forest fire mitigation projects. These partnerships allow us to work hand-in-hand with professionals who are on the front lines, protecting our forests and communities from the devastating effects of wildfires. By donating 100% of our 2023 profits, we are able to provide vital support to these dedicated crews and their important work.
The Role of Our Elk Creek T-shirt and Hat Design:
We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to our community for their support in purchasing our products, particularly our Elk Creek t-shirt and hat design. The success of these products has played a significant role in enabling us to donate 100% of our profits towards forest fire mitigation projects.
By wearing these products, our community members have not only shown their style and love for nature but also actively contributed to our mission of creating a safer environment.
Looking Ahead:
As we move forward, we are inspired by the impact we have made and motivated to do more. We will continue to collaborate with local fire departments and their Wildland fuels crews to support forest fire mitigation projects. Our commitment to sustainability, eco-friendly practices, and giving back to our communities remains unwavering.
