THANK YOU!

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, Karis Community’s 50 Years of Hope & Healing spring fundraiser was a tremendous success. Held at the beautiful Denver Museum of Nature & Science, the evening brought together supporters, alums, staff, Community Members, and friends to celebrate five decades of hope, healing, and belonging.

Guests enjoyed a meaningful evening filled with connection, inspiring stories, auctions, community engagement, and museum access, all while helping raise critical funds to support Karis’ Empowerment Program and future trauma-informed infrastructure upgrades. We are deeply grateful to everyone who attended, donated, sponsored, volunteered, bid in the auction, and helped make this milestone celebration so special. Thanks to all of you, we raised nearly $120,000! A record for Karis Community!

For 50 years, Karis has remained committed to creating a compassionate community where individuals can heal, grow, and move toward greater independence. We look forward to continuing this mission together for many years to come.

Thank you to our auction donors!
