SVP Boulder County stands alongside our non-profit partners to envision a more vibrant and thriving Boulder County community for all. At this time of great unrest and pain in our country, our mission to harness the collective power of nonprofits and philanthropic change makers to accelerate community impact has never been more important. We won’t remain on the sidelines and we won’t turn away from the responsibility to address systemic racial injustice. We will listen, learn and educate ourselves so we can do the work required for a more equitable and just society.
