Is there anywhere in Summit County, Colorado to get help if your camping out and low on funds?
My sister and I recently camp up here to go on a camping expadition after my mother died and we are a little short on some of the things that we need, we didn’t realize that so much stuff was required to survive and we desperatly need a helping hand. I am 22 and she is 18 and we were left with basically nothing so we have made a list and someone suggested I post it here on Criagslist to see if anyone in the area might be able to help. We would greatly appricate the help, it doesn’t matter that the items are used as long as they are still in useable shape. So here is the list we have come up with:
*camping stove and mini fuel tanks
*hiking backpack
*extra blankets
*2 pair black sweatpants (size XL)
*wool socks, snow caps and gloves
*D and AA cell batteries
*a pot/pan to cook on
*any food items we could boil and cook in water anything that might be good for that food wise would be a big help
*long john shirts and pants (both XL)
*femine hygine products (i.e. Tampons)
*hand pump for air matteress
*walkie talkies so we can stasy in touch if seperated since we’ve have discovered its fairly easy to get lost out here
*2 pair of womans shoes both size 8.5 maybe something good for snow and walking, ours have holes
*a small first aid kit as I have already hurt myself on accident once since we arrived.
If you can help us with any of these items it would be a great help becasue we were left with pretty much nothing. We came up here and spent the little money we had on Ramen noodle, a small tent, one sleeping bag and a light and a gallon for water, but that is basically about it aside from the little shirts we came with. So abny help would be greatly appricated. We also can do small odd jobs to earn money until we find a more permanent job out here, because we have learned very quickly a little monwey goes a long way. We have been here for 5 days now, and it gets fairly cold at night so anything will help. Feel free to email me and leave a phone number if you can he4lp and I will call you with my calling card since I no longer have a working cell phone. Thank you so much again.

Wish you luck, the seasonal hiring should pick up as the ski season approaches
You need to find a homeless shelter and develop a plan to take care of yourself. Begging on the internet is not a realistic survival plan. It is not the responsibility of anyone to take care of you. You went on a “camping expedition” without any money or equipment and now you expect people to give you everything you need. Good Luck.
