They showed up for us. Now it's our turn.
Alpine Bank has established a dedicated benefit account to support the families of five firefighters impacted by the Snyder Fire, which remains active along the Colorado–Utah border in Mesa County. Three of the firefighters tragically lost their lives in the line of duty, and two others were injured.
“This hits close to home for all of us,” said Alpine Bank Regional President Tyler Dahl. “When something like this happens, you don’t hesitate. You show up. These firefighters were there for our communities and now it’s our turn to stand beside their families and support them however we can. That’s what neighbors do.”
The benefit account is open for donations now through August 31, 2026, with all funds going directly to the families.
Alpine Bank is launching the effort with an initial $25,000 donation, to be split equally among the five families.
How to donate
Community members, businesses, and organizations can contribute in the following ways:
- ACH transfer: Available to both Alpine Bank customers and non-customers.
- In person: Visit any Alpine Bank branch location.
- By phone: Alpine Bank customers can donate by phone at 800-551-6098.
Donations should be designated to the “Snyder Fire Firefighter Families Benefit Account" to ensure funds are directed appropriately.
