June 2023: Honor Bell Foundation

For Coloradans who have sacrificed selflessly by serving our Nation, we can offer a final salute — a tribute that resounds with tradition, dignity, solemnity and respect. This is the mission of The Honor Bell Foundation, a Colorado-based nonprofit organization working to properly recognize departed veterans during burial services. We do so with the Honor Bell, a 1000-pound bronze instrument specially forged from the legacy of other heroic service men and women, which is tolled at public ceremonies and funeral rites to signal our respect and sound our loss.

July 2023: Live Free Association

Run by locals Gina and Jason Anguiano, you may know them best by their events such as the Turkey Trott, St. Patrick's Day Run and the 4th of July Run at the Douglas County Fairgrounds. Those events exist to partner with organizations helping people break free from various forms of illness, addiction, poverty, and captivity to find freedom and live a full life. The net profits go to local organizations to meet that mission.

August 2023: Douglas County Land Conservancy
