Keep the Heart of Mancos Beating Year-Round

Mancos United is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) serving everyone who lives, learns, or works in the Mancos Valley.We bring people together across generations, cultures, and circumstances to create a socially and emotionally healthy and safe Mancos community.

Thanks to the generosity of friends and neighbors, we’ve already raised $11,000 toward our annual goal. We’re aiming for $10,000 more during Colorado Gives to sustain our programs and unlock statewide matching funds.

Your gift keeps local kids safe, supported, and smiling... and ensures that families have a lifeline when times get tough.

  • 60 children served daily each summer through the Mancos Summer Hub, gaining independence and belonging.

  • Dozens of people stabilized through our Basic Needs Program — from emergency car repairs to tutoring to heat assistance.

  • Countless connections across our town that remind us what community truly means.

When you give, you’re not just funding programs — you’re investing in the heart of Mancos. Together, we’re building a community that thrives through relationships, trust, and shared care.

Belonging. Connection. Fun. It’s more than a motto — it’s how Mancos thrives.

Every gift to Mancos United sustains the programs that make Mancos a place where everyone — kids, families, adults, and elders alike — can belong, connect, and have fun all year long.

Mission

Mancos United creates conditions create conditions in the Mancos Valley that support the social,

emotional, mental, and physical well-being of everyone who lives, works, or learns there.

Background Statement

Mancos United was launched as a response to community tragedy. The school district and local social service organizations identified the vision of a socially and emotionally, healthy, safe and united Mancos community. After listening to you share what was missing and how we might achieve the vision, four areas of focus were identified:

1) Summer Programs for kids and to reduce adult stress

2) Connecting people with basic needs services and resources

3) Exploring a Mancos Valley Community Hub

4) Partnering with aligned organizations / activities

We're wrapping up #3 shortly and will zero in on the others. Thanks for all of your support over the first few years!
