Ways to Give

Our efforts to help children and adults with disabilities thrive wouldn't be possible without the support of donors like you.

Why Make A Donation?

Since 1985, Community Connections has been helping people with disabilities lead healthy and fulfilling lives in our community. We serve approximately 900 people annually in a five-county region of Southwest Colorado. Your gift helps cover funding shortfalls while contributing to a culture of inclusion and empowering people with disabilities to live life on their own terms. Every dollar makes a difference, and a meaningful gift to you is a meaningful gift to us. Thank you in advance for your support!

    Event Sponsorships

You will receive exposure in November/December on our online event website, at the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad Museum with thousands of Polar Express riders, as well as myriad other benefits. Your tax-deductible donation helps us provide essential services to our friends and neighbors with disabilities and advocate for their inclusion and full participation in community life.
