Community Shares is Colorado's Community Giving Fund. We believe in shared progress and collectively building a more socially and racially just Colorado. We invest resources, build capacity, and elevate the work of Colorado based nonprofits working for social change and advancing social justice. We do this by connecting individuals, nonprofits, and employers through our community giving and workplace engagement programs to democratize philanthropy so it reflects our vital and vibrant community - both who is giving and where those dollars are designated. Our programs inspire accessible, meaningful, and transformational philanthropy through incremental giving options like payroll contributions and workplace engagement options like matching funds, employee volunteer incentives, and corporate giving strategies. Annually, we engage more than 250,000 employees across the state, encouraging them to give more than $3 million annually to nonprofits working for social change in our community. In 2021, we celebrated 35 years of giving, collectively raising more than $40 million for local investment in Colorado nonprofits. While our team is currently working remotely, our offices are located in the Colorado Collaborative for Nonprofits at 789 Sherman St. in Denver, Colorado.
