Toy Drive Organized For Those Forced From Homes Due To Asbestos
The evacuation prompted Sarah Preciado to set up a toy drive for the children of those living in the complexes.
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (CBS4)– A woman in Colorado Springs said she feels compelled to help after asbestos forced families out of their homes just weeks before Christmas. Two apartment complexes in Colorado Springs were evacuated because of asbestos contamination last week.
The investigation has spread to seven apartment complexes owned by Denver-based Slipstream Properties. People living at the Parks Edge – formerly known as Pine Creek – and the Shannon Glen Apartments were given notice to evacuate last week.
