Support Fremont County Nonprofits Fremont County is fortunate to have dozens of nonprofits that are vital to the community. From services for those in need of food and shelter to organizations that provide children a positive place to go to after school to fun events that have become yearly staples of the community, one thing has become clear: Fremont County would not be the same community without the contributions of these organizations. Since 2012, the Daily Record has offered free advertising to these nonprofits because we see the need to support their causes. This section is another way for all of us as a community to help promote them. We hope as readers view the contact information for each group, they not only use their services but also consider donating to them. -- Michael Alcala, Cañon City Daily Record general manager

Fremont County Nonprofits A-Z H What they do: The Howard Volunteer Fire Howard Volunteer Fire Department
Department is committed firmly to their mission no matter the circumstances they face. Their mission is to suppress fires, train and equip local residents as volunteer firefighters, to educate the public in fire safety, to assist the local ambulance service, to provide a variety of community support when requested, and provide mutual aid with local fire districts and BLM/USFS. They are 100% volunteer driven and rely on 100% community donations to operate. The department was formed in 1962 by a small group of Howard residents. Harold Willoughby and Denzel Goodwin were listed on the charter. The first “fire truck” was a pick-up truck. In the years that followed they were loaned a Forestry Service truck from the state. In the summer of 1994, they acquired a 1949 4X4 fire truck. After putting a newer larger engine in it, the “Red Truck” (as it was called) became the flagship of the fleet. They now have several more “modern” trucks, but the Red Truck holds a special place in their hearts and it now sits at Station 1. Their first firehouse was the Willoughby dugout on Co Rd 45 & Co Rd 4. It is still used for storage. The current fire chief is Dan Ogden.

Wann, his wife Hazel, and close friend Grace Green, the Humane Society of Fremont County (aka Cañon City Humane Society) was established as an independent, nonprofit organization with a mission to “provide refuge for the hurt and homeless, to prevent neglect and cruelty, to promote humane education and, by doing so, to enrich our own lives.” Thanks to the generous support provided by Mr. Wann during his lifetime, and later through the Ralph J. Wann Foundation, the Humane Society of Fremont County has been able to provide shelter and care to thousands of homeless and stray animals since 1950. The shelter was founded in memory of Mr. Wann’s dog, Tippy, who lived to be 21. Tippy became depressed and refused to eat during a trip Mr. Wann took to Europe. Distressed, Mr. Wann cut short his trip and returned home. The idea to build an animal shelter took root during that time frame.
