Colorado is home to more than 12,000 nonprofits employing over 182,000 people, and one organization represents them all: Colorado Nonprofit Association. For 40 years, CNA has been a statewide voice for the nonprofit sector, advocating for policies that support nonprofits, providing education and resources, and building connections that strengthen their ability to serve Colorado communities.
In celebration of our 40th anniversary, we're asking you to give $40 for 40 years! Your gift will help us continue advocating for, connecting, and strengthening the nonprofits that make Colorado a better place to live, work, and thrive. Together, we can build a stronger nonprofit sector for the next 40 years and beyond.
Our mission is to advance Colorado’s nonprofit sector by leading advocacy, driving connections, and equipping leaders to navigate opportunity.
For 40 years, Colorado Nonprofit Association (CNA) has served as a statewide champion for Colorado's nonprofit sector, connecting leaders, strengthening organizations, and advocating for the resources and policies nonprofits need to succeed.
Founded on the belief that nonprofits are stronger when they work together, CNA has grown into a statewide network supporting organizations of all sizes, missions, and geographic regions.
As nonprofits navigate funding uncertainty, workforce challenges, and growing community needs, CNA provides practical education, trusted resources, and opportunities for collaboration. We also amplify the collective voice of the sector through state-level advocacy and national partnerships that advance policies supporting nonprofits and the communities they serve.
As we celebrate 40 years, our focus remains on ensuring Colorado nonprofits have the knowledge, connections, and support they need to meet today's challenges and build for the future.
Because when nonprofits are stronger, Colorado is stronger.
