Past Initiatives: Denver Bike Share, Collegiate Prep Academy Mentorship Program

Current Initiative:
Connect Denver Foundation
Mission: Harnessing the power of community partnerships for a sustainable future

Overview
Denver’s Corridor of Opportunity is the City’s next frontier and has the potential to be a dominate road to progress for Denver, the northern Front Range communities and the State –

helping to provide an economic resurgence, community reinvestment, improved multi-modal mobility, ecological restoration and more. This 23-mile stretch linking Denver Union Station (DUS), a re-imagined Brighton Blvd as the gateway into downtown, a revitalized National Western Center Complex as a year-round destination and Denver International Airport (DIA) with its expanding global reach via CDOT’s modernized I-70 interstate highway project and RTD’s new east community line with nine transit stops represents a unique set of unsurpassed synergies. When aligned through the efforts of the NDCC and DIA’s Aerotropolis, we can create a dynamic series of strategically linked residential and commercial neighborhoods to drive economic and social mobility for decades to come. About Us
Connect Denver Foundation will be set up as an individual 501c3 fund and will be governed by ExecConnect. Given the scope, scale and extended timeframe to complete these improvements, the City is seeking the creation of “Connect Denver Foundation” to harness civic engagement through a series of new networks with a belief in actionable outcomes. The ultimate goal for Connect Denver Foundation is to help the Mayor and the North Denver Cornerstone Collaborative to be successful through a very methodical way of thinking and calculated “singles” and “homeruns” throughout this journey. Connect Denver Foundation will focus its efforts primarily on the economic opportunities at hand. Connect Denver Foundation will attend many of the community meetings hosted by the North Denver Cornerstone Collaborative at and around the Corridor of Opportunity to better understand the challenges and opportunities each area may and will face. It will then ultimately determine the best uses of the fund by three simple guiding principles: Community Engagement, Strategic Planning and Aligned Resources.

What an enormous loss. This morning we lost a friend, mentor, and founding board member of our 501c3. We will miss your wisdom, dignity, respect, and compassion for those whom we help. Godspeed, Landri Taylor. Until we meet again.

Where mentoring and tutoring all began for us, fellow members. Remember all the good we did for those students? Thank you, all.

The district plans to solicit community feedback on what that would look like, and whether to build a new school or renovate the existing one.

Today, ExecConnect turns 10 years old! Every single day since inception we have engaged business and community leaders with impactful and inclusive initiatives throughout the greater Denver area. From assisting in the launch of the Denver Bike Share Program to helping to re-connect the Globeville, Elyria-Swansea communities with the rest of the city and mentoring at risk youth on an ongoing basis, we are so proud to look back at all of the "work" we have done and have yet to do. Our vision is simple -- "to be different and make a difference." Here's to many more and thank you to every past, present and future member for making this organization what it is to date.

Heartwarming story about a young man who has struggled with so much personally, academically, and socially, who tragically lost his mom recently.

He wants to be a musician and learn to play the guitar. He wrote a song about the loss of his mom, and cried as he sang it to me.

After mentoring him all year and nearing graduation this month, ExecConnect managed to have Grammy-award winning and CMA Platinum artist Darius Rucker call this young man, and hand over an autographed guitar, wishing him peace.

This is why we exist.

Thank you to so many for so much. And thank you to Darius Rucker and Mark Scot with Darius Rucker Productions for putting this together. You all changed the trajectory of a young man’s life.
