Our Community Impact Areas

Collective Wellbeing

We believe that collective wellbeing is achieved when all our neighbors have consistent access to nutritious food and attainable housing. This impact area supports stable, accessible and affordable living conditions to build a promising future for all, and supports improved access to food for Jeffco residents, ensuring the availability of local, healthy and culturally relevant food.

Economic Freedom

We believe that when our neighbors have the resources and opportunities to pursue career-based education aligned with their goals and aspirations, they can make intentional life and work choices, ultimately leading to economic freedom. Our commitment to this impact area starts with early care and education and extends through workforce development, creating careers that build generational wealth.

Vibrant Communities

We believe that vibrant communities are built on a foundation of holistic wellbeing, social connection and easy access to the places where they can live, work and interact. Our efforts focus on enabling equitable access to health and convenient neighborhoods which combine to improve both individual and collective quality of life.
