Over the weekend, severe storms brought significant flooding to communities across El Paso, including areas in Far East and Northwest El Paso. In response, the City of El Paso and El Paso County have partnered with the El Paso Community Foundation to establish a fund to accept monetary donations to support individuals and families impacted by the flooding.

We are currently collecting donations and asking our community to come together to help our neighbors during this difficult time. As needs are assessed, donations will help support relief and recovery efforts for those affected.

The El Paso Community Foundation Plaza Classic Film Festival will offer more FREE Holiday Movies at WinterFest at more locations this year.

Performance will be in Spanish
