Mission

Volunteers Enriching Weld serves to transform the lives of children and adults in Weld County through community programs. Essential needs are met on our community and families flourish.

Background Statement

Since 1973 our all-volunteer organization has faithfully served the Greeley and Weld County Community stepping in to cover community needs unmet by other agencies.

Our volunteers work tirelessly to discover the needs of the community, and develop resources and funding to meet the challenges of providing those services. The dedicated volunteer members who work daily at the Bargain Box log an amazing number of hours (over 22,000 last year) sorting and marking clothing, personal items and household goods for sale to the public. Bargain Box proceeds provide funds for all our philanthropic endeavors. The members hold a vision of helping the community while enjoying a deep sense of camaraderie and friendship, respect and empathy and true joy in what they are accomplishing for their community.

Most of our funds are generated through the Bargain Box Thrift Store, although grants, donations and events supplement our ability to deliver our programs. We are a 100% volunteer-run organization with no paid employees. Clothing and store products are marked at lower rates to help those in need find quality, affordable clothing and goods. In this way, we aim to provide a win-win for the community .
