In the past year alone, our efforts directly served 1,358 individuals, with a broader reach of up to 13,781 community members.

Through our Grant Process, we allocated an incredible $488,333 to 46 nonprofit organizations, helping to sustain and expand essential services in Routt, Moffat, and Rio Blanco Counties.
