Updates
The 2025/2026 Giving Guide is here — a powerful reminder of what our community can do together. Last year, thanks to your generosity, the nonprofits in this guide raised more than $1.2 million to support their vital work. We couldn’t have done it without you.
Produced by The Sopris Sun and Sol del Valle — your nonprofit, community-supported newspapers — in partnership with Mountain West Gives, the Giving Guide showcases over 100 local nonprofits serving our valleys from Parachute to Aspen with heart, purpose, and creativity.
You can pick up a printed copy at newsstands in this week’s papers or view it online at SoprisSun.com/GivingGuide.
LiftUp Needs your Donations
Dear Friends, Our community is hungry and with the suspension of government funding for SNAP, all monetary and food donations are needed. Donations for the Carbondale pantry can be dropped at the Third Street Center on Monday mornings, or anytime at the RVR Ranch House.

Current Initiatives
Explore our ongoing projects aimed at making a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals and families. We focus on education, food security, arts programs, health services, and more.
Education
Empower through Learning
Our chosen non-profit partner, Carbondale Education Foundation, raises money for teacher grants. These grants enable educational enrichment for K-12 students and financial support for the teachers.
Food Insecurity
Healthy Meals for All
We work to ensure that no one in our community goes hungry. Our food security initiatives provide support to individuals and families facing food insecurity. Our key partners in our Food Insecurity initiative are LiftUp for food donations and Stepping Stones where we provide a meal once a week for up to 25 people.
Arts Programs
Creativity for All Ages
Art has the power to inspire, heal, and bring joy. Our arts programs aim to make the arts accessible to everyone, enriching lives and fostering creativity. We wish to ensure that the vitality and creativity of the Arts can flourish in our community. Our primary partner in the Arts is The Crystal Theater.
