Thank you to Amy Born and Colorado Serenity Magazine for helping highlight Leadership Evergreen!

"Living in unincorporated Jefferson County frequently leads to the question, “Who is responsible for (fill-in-the-blank)?” Without a municipal government to point to, sometimes the answer is a confusing mishmash of agencies, but more often than not, the answer is a group of volunteers who have stepped up to address whatever that “blank” is. The Evergreen area is fortunate to be blessed with a plethora of nonprofits and motivated volunteers who care deeply about this community, but for new and longtime residents or business owners who would like to join in, all those options can make it difficult to know where to start.

An important aspect of Leadership Evergreen is that it brings together people from all walks of life who want to give back. Influential business leaders, homemakers, small business owners, newcomers and natives, people who are great at taking charge and worker bees who just love to help out have all found a place in the organization and the community."
