About Us
I've come to Garden of the Gods on an almost weekly basis for the past 3 years and it was fulfilling to finally be able to give back to it, even if just a little. The RMFI team is passionate about the work they do and it definitely gets passed down to the volunteers and keeps them motivated throughout the day as well. The entire team was kind, inclusive, knowledgable, and approachable. Can't wait to volunteer again.
July 23 - September 1
40 Days of Giving Campaign
In honor of RMFI's 40th Anniversary, a generous supporter has stepped up with an amazing opportunity! All donations made to RMFI until September 1 will be matched, dollar for dollar, up to $40,000! Your gift will help RMFI buy equipment like a McLeod rake which is the bread-and-butter tool of the work we do. Or, you’ll help us add four-season tents that keep our crews safe and warm in alpine environments. Or, you’ll help provide essential Wilderness First Responder training for crew leaders. Or, you’ll help expand our fire mitigation efforts and support additional on-the-ground stewardship projects.
