At Denver Kids, we believe that strong, supportive relationships have the power to help every student reach their full potential and graduate high school. It's been the heart of our mission and the springboard of our strong outcomes since 1946. We recognize that each student has their own unique set dreams, aspirations, fears and barriers, that shape their vision for the future. Denver Kids Advisors work one-on-one with Denver Public Schools students to ensure they are prepared with life skills, equipped with a greater understanding of self, and empowered to pursue their meaningful pathway post-graduation. Learn more at www.DenverKids.org.
Denver Kids is proud to be a part of the Charity Partners Program in the 2026 Denver Colfax Marathon. All runners are encouraged to fundraise for Denver Kids. Since 2008, runners have raised more than $380,000 in support of Denver Kids. We’ll provide lots of support (and incentives) to fundraisers along the way.
