Mancos Valley Resources is accepting donations from anyone who wants to help people who lost their jobs because of the Monday fire that destroyed the Western Excelsior plant.

A board member for the organization, Mary Brisson, says donors can send checks to Mancos Valley Resources and write “fire” or “fire relief” on the memo line. Those funds will be divided equally between Mancos Food Share and the Pay It Forward Fund, both of which provide help to area residents.
