Super grateful for a generous community and our friends at Focus Real Estate for their donations to the holiday toy drive! It’s so important to give where you live and work.

Hello friends! It's been a while! We've been busy this year but not too busy to do our toy drive benefiting Project Worthmore again! This year, Focus Real Estate is teaming up with us to co-sponsor the drive.

If you don’t know about Project Worthmore, they’re an awesome non-profit located just a few streets outside of Stapleton dedicated to helping Denver’s refugee community. Many of these families are settling in our immediate surrounding communities and can use our support.

We are collecting new, unwrapped toys until Dec. 8. Drop off your donations at Progress Coworking and Dog Haus Biergarten and we’ll make sure they get appropriately tagged, wrapped and ready for the kids to enjoy this holiday season! Last year Collectively Creative’s drive received 120 toys!

Drop off location details:
Progress Coworking - 2340 Dayton Street (open Monday- Friday, please knock)
Dog Haus - 8316 Northfield Boulevard (open 11 am-9 pm)

Happy international women’s day to all the ladies who have taken control of their own future!

This week has officially gone to the dogs. One half of the team is dog sick with the flu; the other half is distracted by doggy kisses.

As 2017 comes to a close, we’re thinking about the year that lies ahead. We have big plans for this little business of ours and we can’t wait to see what happens.

Here's a fun poster we created for Work Options for Women to illustrate where their donations go.

Happy New Year from us at WOW!

2017 has been a year of tremendous growth for us. We were awarded a one-time start-up grant of $100,000 from the incredible women of Impact100 Metro Denver to actualize our dream of creating a fully mobile culinary classroom. This grant will allow us to reach 70% MORE women in need in 2018 - especially those who are coming out of incarceration and are living in halfway houses across the metro Denver area.

We also received a large grant from the State of Colorado to help us with recruitment of new students!

Last but certainly not least, we grew because of YOU! Your generosity, your compassion, and your interest in our program is one of the reasons we felt confident enough to expand our program to help train and employ event more people in the Denver area. Without your help, we wouldn't have been able to do it. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

We wanted to reach out to you one more time in 2017 to see if you would help us one more time this year.

Below, you'll see an infographic about where your donation dollars go. Since we're expanding our program, we need just a little bit more help to enter 2018 with enough funding to cover the start of our Mobile Culinary Classroom.

Please feel free to donate however you feel comfortable (sending checks, or by going here http://www.workoptions.org/donate/)! Please note that all donations are tax-deducible and any donation of $250 or more qualifies for an additional tax benefit through the Denver Enterprise Tax Zone Credit.

Thank you so much.

Sincerely,
WOW

P.S. We can't wait to ring in 2018 with you and we look forward to seeing you at our next event - Thursday, February 15. Mark your calendars! More info to come soon.

Near or far, wherever you are ... happy holidays to you!
