Don’t settle for charity that stops at sympathy. Support a nonprofit that transforms compassion into action. At the Denver VOICE, every vendor earns their own income, finding purpose, support, community, and their VOICE. Our research finds that for every dollar donated to the Denver VOICE our unhoused vendors earn $2-$3 in income. We multiply your donation and get it to the people who need it most.

Every month, Denver VOICE vendors earn thousands of dollars through meaningful work selling our street paper and creative products. Your support turns those sales into steady income, dignity, and connection for people experiencing homelessness and poverty. Many have found their way out of homelessness through participation in the Denver VOICE programs, using their earnings and new skills to rebuild stability and independence.

The Denver VOICE doesn’t just provide income. We also offer wraparound services that help vendors build long-term stability. Through our Peer Navigator Program, vendors receive one-on-one support connecting them to housing assistance, legal aid, transportation help, health care, and other community resources. We meet people where they are, helping them take the next step toward independence.

The Denver VOICE is more than a newspaper. It’s a platform for empowerment and truth. Our award-winning journalism has been recognized for years by both the International Network of Street Papers (INSP) and the Society of Professional Journalists Rocky Mountain Region for excellence in reporting and storytelling.

We cover issues and stories other Denver media overlook, focusing on poverty, housing, justice, and the human experience behind the headlines. Our stories are written and photographed by people deeply connected to the community, often those who have lived the experiences we report on.

Your donation sustains both sides of our mission: economic opportunity for vendors and independent community journalism that amplifies unheard voices and builds understanding across Denver. Together, we can keep dignity, income, and truth alive on our streets.
