$20,000 Goal
This is a moment of increased need for many people who live and work at CLC. Increased costs of living, worries about Medicaid coverage, and a reduction in social support create gaps that are difficult for them to navigate alone.
Will you please help us raise $20,000 on Colorado Gives Day for the General Mission Fund? Your gift will provide CLC with the flexibility to meet these needs as they arise.
From getting medical devices that residents need to live with well-being, to helping team members navigate unexpected emergencies, you can be the caring solution to their heartfelt prayers for help.
Thank you for being the bridge back to hope, security, meaning, and joy for the older adults and team members who need it most.

OUR VISION: Creating communities were aging is honored and celebrated.
OUR MISSION: Christian Living Communities enriches the quality and dignity of life for older adults through services and care that reflect Christian love, respect, and compassion toward each individual.
Christian Living Communities is a mission-driven, Colorado-based, non-profit organization enriching older adult lives since 1972.
The vision for Christian Living Communities came from members of the Christian Reformed and Reformed Churches of America. These members, descendants of Dutch, Calvinist immigrants, believed that the Christian community should band together to meet the needs of all community members. Community needs included providing churches, schools, hospitals, welfare agencies, and senior service organizations. As a result, in 1972, local church members opened a 62-bed nursing home called University Hills Christian Nursing Home, and CLC was born.
We have now blossomed into a multi-site Colorado organization with six owned communities: Clermont Park, Someren Glen, Holly Creek, Dayspring Villa, Cappella of Pueblo West, and Cappella of Grand Junction.
Besides our residential communities, we have channeled our vast experience in senior care to include programs for Home Care and Adult Day Services. We've provided Home Care Services to older adults since the early 1990s, and we began providing adult day services in 2001. Our in-home Rhythms Home Care services provide assistance to those who want to live at home but require outside help to maintain their independence. CLC's Adult Day Services provides a home-away-from home for individuals in the early stages of memory loss.
While born in the Christian faith, CLC serves and employs people of all backgrounds. We adhere to a strict anti-discrimination policy. We maintain and cherish our Christian roots as a promise to all who come through our doors that they are wanted, valued, represented, and can contribute to the fabric of our organization – to feel they truly belong.
