What is Colorado Gives Day?

  • Colorado Gives Day is the biggest 24-hour giving movement in the state and one of the most successful giving days in the nation; it began in 2010 and has raised more than $469 million.

  • Every donation toward Colorado Gives Day increases La Puente’s chance to earn extra funds from the Colorado Gives Day Incentive Fund, so your gift could go even further!

  • Donations can be made through Colorado Gives throughout the year, but from November 1 through December 10, additional “matching funds” boost your donation!

  • HCTC tax credits apply to gifts of $100 or more! Because La Puente serves a rural area, donors receive a 30% tax credit. Learn More HERE.

Help Our Community THRIVE:

Every year, more than 10,000 people in the San Luis Valley will use one of La Puente’s services as they work to heal, strengthen, and thrive.

We are grateful for the consistent generosity of our supporters, which has allowed us to grow for more than 40 years to meet the needs of our community.
