Since 1973
We believe volunteers are the heartbeat of our community and true community is formed by individuals coming together, forming relationships, and fostering acts of service and care for people with different backgrounds and life experiences.
Our organization first started as High Country RSVP (Retired Senior Volunteer Program) in 1973 as a sponsored program of Colorado Mountain College.
