2022 Nonprofit of the Year | Hope, Connection and Community
What started as a giving table of food during the COVID-19 pandemic, Hope Connection and Community (HCC) quickly shifted as the need of resources and support in the Arvada community was fully realized. The non-profit has consistently grown since then to create change, positively impact lives and empower independence for families and children through community programs. Those programs include Eat Well, Live Well, Hope for Kids (a back-to-school program), Kutz 4 Kids events, and a Santa’s Workshop. HCC has grown each year, helping those in need while providing a home for those who want to make a meaningful connection to our community.
