Statewide Mental Wellness Program

DONATE

Our Annual Heart of Pueblo Fundraiser is a family friendly and fun community event that benefits our Pueblo area Mental Wellness Program. The 2024 Heart of Pueblo Fundraiser will be Thursday, October 17th from 11:00am-1:00pm.

What is Our Impact?

Each year, our statewide Mental Wellness Program connects over 8,000 individuals to FREE counseling and mental health services in their communities, no insurance required. Nearly 25% of services are provided within the Pueblo community. We currently engage 18 host and partner sites in Southern Colorado. We host monthly Teen Kickback Events and 8+ support groups for survivors of domestic violence, older adults, LGBTQIA+ community members, and more. Our Southern Colorado team is currently focused on continued expansion into Huerfano, El Paso, Baca, Otero and Las Animas counties.

About the Fundraiser

This year's fundraiser is a luncheon hosted at Pueblo Community College. The luncheon includes your meal, a silent auction, and the chance to connect with other community members who support mental health awareness. Interested in reserving one or more seats or an entire table of 8?? Contact us today! We would love to have you join us and learn about the amazing work of our Pueblo Mental Wellness Volunteers.
