Incorporation as an LLC

In a foundational move, BLAST^ has filed an application with the CO Secretary of State to incorporate as an LLC under the name “Boulder Local Action Support Team – BLAST^”. We paid an application fee of $50. This move will prepare BLAST^ to hold major events on the scale of Apogaea, attain permits, purchase insurance, and stand up to any legal or public scrutiny.

THANK YOU, your costume donations and purchases made BLAST^ a reality.

Support for Burners Without Borders

BLAST^ voted to send 10% of the proceeds from the Costume Sale to support Burners Without Borders (BWB), an organization that inspired us to start BLAST^. Our donation of $50 will support current BWB disaster relief efforts:
  • Sending a semi-truck load of food to a Native American community on a reservation in Houma, Louisiana. The reservation was ravaged by unprecedented flooding during hurricanes Gustav and Ike.
  • Reconstruction after the recent flooding in Cedar Rapids, IA.
Previously, BWB carried out another inspirational reconstruction project in Pisco, Peru in response to the August 15th 2007 earthquake, which devastated the Pisco, Peru region and left over 80,000 people homeless.

THANK YOU, your costume donations and purchases are working to help earnest people in need on the Gulf Coast.
