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.
