Community Leadership
Impactful solutions to our region’s inequalities come from people working within the community to ignite change.
| Our Goal
To ensure our region’s opportunities are accessible to all by connecting leaders and catalyzing progress.
| Our Approach
We convene local leaders, assess changing needs, gather and distribute data, and, when appropriate, propose action on critical concerns. We support community-led conversations around pressing needs and promising solutions to issues affecting the Aspen to Parachute region. To ensure a sustainable impact ecosystem, we support our nonprofit network in accessing opportunities to increase their capacity and effectiveness.
| Our Actions
We use our community knowledge, relationships with nonprofit leaders and connection to philanthropists to:
- Build collaborative action among and alongside nonprofit leaders
- Educate philanthropists and connect them with nonprofit leaders driving positive change
- Strengthen nonprofit organizations to ensure a sustainable ecosystem
- Support community conversations about pressing needs and promising solutions
