As of Sunday, 4/18, there were 9,047 confirmed COVID-19 cases in Colorado with 391 deaths. 1,755 people have been hospitalized.
Immigrant and refugee communities have been hit hard by the economic impact of the pandemic. Nearly one in 10 Colorado residents is an immigrant, and a similar share of residents are native-born U.S. citizens who have at least one immigrant parent. Immigrants comprise nearly 14% of all business owners in the state’s densely populated integral part of Colorado’s diverse and thriving communities and make extensive contributions that benefit all.
Multicultural Mosaic Foundation has started a COVID-19 Immigrant and Refugee Community Relief Fund to address the immediate needs of the most vulnerable immigrants and refugees within Denver metro area impacted by COVID-19.
Mosaic has reserved $10,000 from its funds for this relief fund. In addition,Mosaic is working on raising funds to supplement the fund.
We will get through this crisis by supporting each other.
