Dear
Friends, 
We are delighted to share the following stories about youth and families
overcoming enormous obstacles – abuse, neglect, poverty, violence,
racism and more. We believe that some of the best and most innovative
solutions to the complex difficulties facing youth today are found
in our own local organizations. This Catalog was conceived to give
you a glimpse of the important services of 11 such nonprofits in Boulder
County, all working to help kids grow, develop, learn and thrive in
our community. We hope the Catalog will open doors of opportunity
for these grassroots groups, and that you will join us in supporting
their work.
For this second edition, members of our local community convened to
evaluate an array of applicants. The profiles that follow describe
the everyday stories of the 11 youth organizations chosen for their
outstanding work dedicated to promoting healthy, strong, educated
kids. A wholly pro-bono design team, coupled with financial support
from The Community Foundation Serving Boulder County and the Brett
Family Foundation, means that each dollar you contribute goes directly
to the organization(s) you choose to support. We hope to help you
get to know a nonprofit that may be new to you, or to shed light on
an issue impacting kids in our community, to inspire giving –
so all our kids grow up to reach their dreams.
Thank
you for reading on. These stories paint a picture of hope for the
future. Through the work of these Boulder County nonprofits, and that
of many others, we can all make a difference in the lives of children
throughout Boulder County. Take a look. Choose one. Choose more. But,
please, give to those organizations that speak to your head and shout
to your heart.
