Mancos United: Basic Needs Fund
$300 Raised
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.
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.
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!
