“Elevate Colorado’s Future”

For years, you knew us as Papagayo — a trusted place where vulnerable new residents and families found hope, stability, and community.

Today, we’ve grown into Elevate for Change, carrying that same heart and mission forward with a renewed vision: helping every person in Colorado rise.

We believe that when one person is lifted, the entire community soars. Through our programs, we help newcomers, parents, youth, and entrepreneurs access job training, career pathways, business support, and essential resources like housing, food, and healthcare.

Our goal is simple but powerful — to build a Colorado where every individual, regardless of where they come from, has the tools, confidence, and community to thrive.

Your support fuels that vision. Every gift helps families rebuild, empowers young leaders, and strengthens the roots of belonging across our state.

From Papagayo to Elevate — our name has changed, but our purpose remains the same: to lift lives, create opportunity, and elevate Colorado’s future.
