Denver Metro Chamber Leadership Foundation holds second annual Alumni Giving Day

You know an effective leader when you see one. It’s a person who can rally a team, envision a path forward for a business and unite people with diverse perspectives to make our region and our state better.

As graduates of the Denver Metro Chamber Leadership Foundation programs, we know that better than anybody. We credit much of our success in civic engagement to the Leadership Foundation. The foundation helped us build the skills, framework and network to take our leadership to the next level.

We are now asking you to join us in providing the opportunity for future Chamber leaders to participate in these programs. Donate to the Leading Colorado Scholarship Fund today on Alumni Giving Day.

The Denver Metro Chamber Leadership Foundation, a part of the Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce family of organizations, has helped strong, diverse leaders discover their journeys and lead where they stand for nearly 50 years. Your donation to the Leading Colorado Scholarship Fund will open the doors to more people who are ready to tap into their passion and lead but would not otherwise be able to access the foundation’s transformational programming.

And even better, Chamber Patron Delta Dental of Colorado believes in this work and has created a $10,000 challenge match for any donations made today.

On top of that, the four highest donors today will receive lunch with us at the Denver Art Museum.

Our business community is stronger today because of the thousands of alumni who have experienced the Leadership Foundation’s programs. Will you help others tap into their potential?
