As you are a friend of Western Colorado Alliance, I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for supporting us, and for being a part of our work. The success of any program or campaign that you care about is powered by the people who show up, roll up their sleeves, and give it their full heart. And our Alliance is full of heart!

From farmers regenerating their soil health for future generations, to teachers supporting our region’s next leaders, to small business owners fighting for an economy that works for all of us — hundreds of people like you came together this year to build a brighter future for the Western Slope every day. 

From Rifle to Montrose, we are celebrating big wins for our towns:

Empowering West Slope Youth Voice students to lobby for increased access to student-based health centers in rural Colorado.

Working with local solar businesses and community members to create model pro-solar land use codes to foster local clean energy development.

Engaging over 200 farmers and ranchers in regenerative agriculture techniques and soil health practices. 

Winning federal oil and gas leasing reform to ensure taxpayers receive a fair return for use of publicly owned minerals and holding operators accountable to clean up costs.

….and more! All of these actions and accomplishments were driven by people like you, problem-solving and working together to build grassroots power and effect decisions that impact our lives. Through every action we take, we boldly proclaim our vision for healthy, just and self-reliant communities across Western Colorado, now and into the future.

Western Colorado Alliance will keep up the hard work to make our vision a reality. You can help right now by keeping us strong, financially independent, and ready to face whatever challenges the coming years may bring with an end-of-year gift. Whatever lies ahead, we are ready to face it together, united for a better future for all.

We are grateful to have you on our team at this moment. Thank you for standing with us as we show up in our communities and participate in our democracy with integrity, love, stewardship, justice, and courage, time and again.
