Student project: Resources for Marshall Fire victims
I am a Marshall Fire victim who lost her childhood home and everything inside it during the horrible Marshall Fire. I noticed a pain point for people who suffered smoke damage to their home, or whose home was destroyed, was that there were all of these resources out there but no clear organization. This meant a lot of the resources weren’t known to the people who needed them most.
When tasked with creating a website for my CU Boulder digital marketing class, I decided it was a perfect opportunity to make a comprehensive resource guide. I also noticed that people who wanted to help didn’t know how to help in effective ways and decided to integrate this into our website as well.
