Denim & Emeralds
We envisioned a future without homelessness, and more than 100 ticket holders and 15 event sponsors helped us move closer to that vision during the second annual Denim & Emeralds fundraiser benefiting Ready to Work in Aurora. The evening was filled with community support, including a reading from Honorary Aurora Poet Laureate Ahja Fox, the impactful journey of Ready to Work graduate Josh Hall, and "Success Through Two I's" shared by Denver comedian Sam Adams. The event culminated in raising more than $60,000 to support the transformative impact that Ready to Work is having on adults experiencing homelessness through paid employment, housing, and support services in Aurora. Thank you to our platinum sponsors, KeHe Foundation and the City of Centennial, for entrusting us to steward your generous partnership.

Ready to Work Graduation
Held each fall, Ready to Work's annual graduation ceremony celebrates men and women who successfully complete the transformational year-long program. Since 2015 dignity and independence has been returned nearly 600 graduates who have secured independent employment that supports their housing and ongoing aftercare support. A year after graduation, we are proud to say that 80 percent of graduates continue with sobriety, and are positively impacting the families and communities of which they are members.

Homeless Memorial: Day of Remembrance
The City of Boulder's annual Homeless Memorial memorializes adults who have experienced homelessness and died in Boulder County each year. Framed names of the departed community members line the Glen Huntington Bandshell stage amongst roses and candles. Members of Boulder City Council acknowledge National Homeless Persons' Memorial Day, Moon Over the Mountains Threshold Choir performs, and representatives from Bridge House and local community partners reflect on the both the physical and emotional stress that affects people with histories of homelessness, as well as the camaraderie within the homeless community.

Christmas Day Meal
Each Christmas Day food insecure community members, adults experiencing homelessness, or those with no one to celebrate the holiday with are welcomed to an inviting church and are served a delicious, hot lunch and desserts prepared by Community Table Kitchen and supported by Bridge House volunteers who prepare the dining room and food, wait on attendees, and clean up. Guests are gifted a pair of stockings filled with toiletry essentials and snacks and are offered to selected new coats, hats, gloves, and other winter essentials annually donated by a generous local family.
