This Sunday, four CrossPurpose staff members are lacing up their shoes and taking on the Colfax Marathon, and they’re running for something bigger than the finish line. 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

Together, they’re raising $2,500 to help Denver neighbors climb from poverty to prosperity through career training, community, and opportunity.

Want to cheer them on in a tangible way? You can support their run by giving through the link below and selecting “Colfax Marathon” from the designation menu!

Let’s help them cross the finish line strong!

Being named a “Best Place to Work” by the Denver Business Journal means the most to us because it’s based on our staff's rankings around leadership, benefits, and overall experience in the organization.

Get the inside scoop on the top 6 reasons we've made the list for 6 years running here: https://www.crosspurpose.org/6-reasons-weve-been-voted-a-best-place-to-work-for-6-years-in-a-row/

In honor of Global Volunteer Recognition Month this April, we hosted our 2nd Annual Volunteer Appreciation Happy Hour. This year’s theme, Rooted in Gratitude, served as a tribute to the dedicated individuals who form the foundation of our mission.

At CrossPurpose, we believe transformation happens in community, and our volunteers are at the very heart of that progress. We gathered to celebrate the profound impact these individuals have—offering their time, wisdom, and encouragement to help our neighbors flourish.

To our volunteers: Thank you for staying rooted with us. You make our community stronger every single day.

MEET THE CHANGE AGENTS

After immigrating to the U.S., Yuki experienced firsthand how language barriers can limit someone’s freedom, especially in legal settings. On May 6, you’ll hear how she’s taking that challenge and turning it into an opportunity that will help others navigate life in a new country.
