Rewards

While giving is — and should be — its own reward, we have added some exciting twists and competitions to get you into an especially charitable frame of mind to support one or more worthy local Pikes Peak nonprofits selected by our broad-based community steering committee.

Great news.

We are approaching 1,000 donors who have given $25 or more.

Better news.

All our reward donors have agreed to give us more gift cards so we can now guarantee reward packages to all donors who make a donation at any level today!
