Colorado Gives Day is tomorrow Tuesday December 8!

Please consider donating to the Poudre Whitewater Park. Thanks to many generous donations, we are very close to meeting our commitment with the City!!

This year our goal is to raise at least $10,000 on Colorado Gives Day! As an incentive to donate on Colorado Gives Day, we will receive a percentage of the $1,000,000 matching fund based on our portion of the overall funds raised across all causes on Colorado Gives Day.

Please visit our page at coloradogives.org to donate: Poudre Whitewater Park at Colorado Gives

You can even schedule your donation today! Simply go to the URL above and under “Donation Type” select “CO GIVES DAY”, then simply submit the form as normal and your donation will occur on December 8th.

Thanks for your help and your donation! Also watch your local news sources for an upcoming announcement about the Whitewater Park

Hey all, we are starting our fundraising for the Poudre Whitewater Park! We are now looking for donors both large and small to help out. If you or anyone you know would like to donate to the cause, please help out!

City council has already approved this project, but it still needs to be funded. Please help us realize the dream of a city that stands apart from the rest with this beautiful addition to an already amazing place to live. Click Donate and make the Whitewater Park a reality.*

A short letter with information on the park and links is available: here. Please distribute to all you think could be interested.

*To have your gift benefit from the Colorado Gives Day statewide $1 million incentive fund, donate on Tuesday, Dec. 9th or schedule your donation to occur on that date. In addition to the statewide $1 million incentive fund, Colorado Gives Day gifts made to Larimer County nonprofits may also benefit from local prizes and awards that increase the value of those donations.
