Guests at the Legal Aid Foundation’s Justice in Action event honoring Dave Johnson, this past September at Garden of the Gods.
Yesterday, your kindness made justice possible.Â
Our community came together once again to show just how much legal aid matters. Thanks to your generosity, we surpassed our Colorado Gives Day goal and raised $139,345, exceeding last year’s total of $118,324 and our 2025 goal of $120,000. These funds will enable Colorado Legal Services to help even more Coloradans when they need it most.
But that generosity won’t just fund legal aid; it gave families, veterans, and seniors the power to stand up for their rights and be heard. You made it possible for someone facing eviction to stay in their home. For a survivor of domestic violence to find safety. For a community to know that justice isn’t only for those who can afford it.
In this video, Sarah Lipka, Advocacy Director for South Colorado with Colorado Legal Services, shares why your support makes such a difference for people across Colorado. Her message captures it perfectly: when our community invests in civil legal aid, more of our neighbors can stay housed, stay safe, and access the justice they deserve.
Thank you for standing up for justice this Colorado Gives Day, and with every Coloradan who needs a fair chance.
