   Donate Now - Critical Needs  

We're thrilled to share some positive news amid our current challenges. We are honored to have been awarded a $46,600 grant from the Colorado Department of Veterans Affairs for the current fiscal year, dedicated to supporting our local veterans. The grant, effective from July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025, encompasses various critical needs, including food and gas cards, vehicle repair, utility bill assistance, specialty art supplies, and emergency needs for veterans, unmet by other agencies.

    Canvas and Courage: A New Roof for Our Heroes' Sanctuary

Now for the not so good news.  Our roof is in critical need of being replaced.  Not repaired, but a new roof.  We are on a campaign to get the funds to do this and its moving very slowly.  You can help by donating, or organizing a fundraiser, like the PT for Veterans 5K/10K haunted hustle that brought in $2500 for the campaign. If you want to help but not sure how email Wendy.
