OUR LEGACY / 105 Years of Showing Up for Colorado
For more than a century, the League of Women Voters of Colorado has shown up wherever Coloradans seek clarity — in classrooms, libraries, courthouses, community events, and even at gatherings where we’re not the host. No matter where we are, someone always says, “My mother was in the League,” or “My neighbor volunteers,” or “My grandmother registered voters with you.” Our legacy is woven through generations. It’s not manufactured, it’s earned.
WHAT PEOPLE DON'T SEE / A Trusted Name, Powered by Grassroots Work
Despite our century-old reputation, we are still a deeply grassroots organization. We remain scrappy, always hustling to raise funds, build partnerships, and mobilize volunteers. Nothing about our past exempts us from the realities of nonprofit work – we rely entirely on the generosity of Coloradans who believe democracy must be protected, strengthened, and informed.
WHY THIS WORK MATTERS / Democracy Depends on an Informed Public
Every organization relies on the umbrella of freedom, but freedom itself depends on a healthy democracy. And democracy depends on informed voters. The League is the defender of that democracy. Our sword is education. Our shield is trust – a trust built over 105 years of showing up, educating, and empowering Coloradans across every community and generation.
WHAT YOUR GIFT POWERS / Your Support Keeps Voters Informed and Democracy Strong
Your Colorado Gives Day gift fuels voter education, outreach, partnerships, and the statewide network that ensures every voter in Colorado can participate with confidence. Nothing is wasted. Every dollar strengthens the vital, year-round civic infrastructure that helps Coloradans navigate an increasingly complex information landscape.
EMPOWERING VOTERS. DEFENDING DEMOCRACY.
We envision a democracy where every person has the desire, the right, the knowledge, and the confidence to participate.
In Colorado, the League of Women Voters (LWVCO) was organized in 1928. Throughout its history, members have researched, studied, discussed, and reached consensus on many controversial issues. The League in Colorado has had an impact in many areas of government.
PROTECTING THE VOTE & EXPANDING ACCESS
We work to remove barriers to voting, fight voter suppression, and expand voter access – especially for historically disenfranchised communities. Our Ballot Issue Education provides clear, unbiased resources to help voters make informed decisions.

VOTER EDUCATION & COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT
Every dollar you give strengthens the statewide, grassroots network that keeps Coloradans informed and engaged. Your support powers nonpartisan voter guides, community workshops, translated resources, public forums, civic literacy tools, and direct outreach through our 20 local Leagues. These efforts ensure that every voter, regardless of background, zip code, age, or ability, has access to the facts they need to participate with confidence.
Your investment fuels conversations at kitchen tables, libraries, schools, and community gatherings across the state, helping build a more informed, empowered, and inclusive electorate.
