I want to sincerely thank our customers and partners for joining us to help our fellow Coloradans."

"We continue to receive an outpouring of support from our community and beyond," said Tatiana Hernandez, CEO, Community Foundation Boulder County. "Evolution Digital's support allows us, working closely with our government partners, to address the short- and long-term needs of those affected by the fires who need it most."

"We care deeply about our local community in Colorado and hope that our contribution delivers meaningful support to those who have lost so much,' said Michael Coakley, VP, Liberty Latin America. "We are happy to join our partners and the Community Foundation Boulder County to help our neighbors in their time of need as they recover from the tragic fires."

"TDS has been part of the Colorado community for 30 years," said Jim Butman, President and CEO, TDS. "Our donation today is one way to show our support for our neighbors in need. We know it's a difficult time for businesses and homeowners who lost so much. We are pleased we can assist those who have been impacted by these devasting fires."

"Xperi takes pride in being good community stewards in the regions in which we live, work and do business," said Jon Kirchner, CEO, Xperi. "This donation comes from our concern for the Boulder community, and support for our employees, customers and partners in the area. It is my hope that this combined effort provides much needed resources for those who have been affected by this tragedy."

"Colorado is home to many NCTC employees, member companies and their customers", said Lou Borrelli, CEO, NCTC.
