We Did It!

Wow, I can’t believe it! Thanks to you, we did it! I’m so excited to share that we have successfully doubled our donation to CrossPurpose! What started as a goal to raise $5,000 has turned into an incredible $10,000 donation, and it’s all because of your support.

If you’ve been following our journey, then you know that all of us here at Avalue Insurance are huge supporters of CrossPurpose, a nonprofit dedicated to helping individuals and families break free from poverty. Last time, we celebrated raising $5,000, which was a huge milestone for us. But now our humble goal has turned into a whopping $10,000 donation from Safeco/Liberty Mutual. I’m still wrapping my head around it — what an incredible impact this will have on CrossPurpose and the people they serve!

How We Got Here

Avalue Insurance recently had the opportunity to raise funds for CrossPurpose as part of the Safeco/Liberty Mutual Make More Happen Award. The community votes were key to determining whether or not our $5,000 would be doubled. We put the word out and crossed our fingers, hoping our community would show up and make it happen. And, boy, did you ever!

Thanks to you — our clients, friends, and supporters — we were able to rally well over 500 votes, securing that additional $5,000. Your votes, your time, and your support helped us exceed our goal in such a big way. This is one of those moments that reminds me just how powerful community can be when we come together for a cause that matters!

What This Means for CrossPurpose

CrossPurpose has been making an incredible impact on our community by helping individuals build sustainable, self-sufficient lives. Their work transforms the lives of so many people, offering them tools, resources, and support to break free from poverty. To date, over 1,125 people have graduated from CrossPurpose since the inception with an average wage of $23/hr!  

This $10,000 donation will go directly to CrossPurpose’s career and community development programs. The funds will be used to cover the tuition costs for participants to receive valuable certifications and training, opening doors to new careers and brighter futures. The impact of this donation will be felt for years to come, and I’m so proud of what we have accomplished together!

Thank You for Your Support

I can’t thank you enough for your role in helping us achieve this milestone. Whether you voted, shared the campaign, or encouraged others to get involved, this wouldn’t have been possible without you.

This isn’t just a win for Avalue Insurance; it’s a win for all of us. Your support not only helped double our donation but also inspired us to continue looking for ways we can make a bigger impact. We’re always on the lookout for opportunities to support local nonprofits and give back to the people who make our Colorado community so special.

What’s Next?

While we’re celebrating this amazing achievement, we’re already thinking about the future and the next opportunity to give back. CrossPurpose will always be near and dear to our hearts, and we’ll continue to support their mission as much as we can.

Once again, thank you for your unwavering support. Together, we’ve made a lasting difference for CrossPurpose and our community. Here’s to many more opportunities to come together and create positive change!

What is CrossPurpose?

CrossPurpose has been a transformative force in central Colorado for many years. This ambitious non profit organization is committed to abolishing relational, economic, and spiritual poverty through career and community development. Avalue Insurance has been deeply involved with CrossPurpose (and our entire office even had the opportunity to sponsor and work the graduation program that took place at the South Denver location this past May)!

As a mentor, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside many inspiring men and women. I’ve watched so many participants rise above their circumstances, achieve their career goals, and transform their lives. And I’ve got to tell you: I can’t wait to see many more!

That’s why I’m committed to doubling my impact for CrossPurpose.

We Just Hit our First Goal!

Recently, Avalue Insurance was honored with the 2024 Make More Happen Award, presented by Liberty Mutual and Safeco Insurance. This award was more than just a recognition of our volunteer work; it was an opportunity to make a real difference in our community. As part of this award, Liberty Mutual and Safeco Insurance awarded CrossPurpose, our nonprofit of choice, with a $5,000 donation.

But Now, We’re on a Mission to Double It.

Here’s where we really need your help: we have the chance to double that donation to $10,000, and all it takes is a few clicks!

Avalue Insurance is currently being featured on the official Make More Happen microsite. If we receive at least 500 votes and comments on our story, Liberty Mutual and Safeco will double their donation to $10,000! This additional funding will go directly towards covering the tuition costs for CrossPurpose participants. These funds will help them gain industry-recognized certifications in fields like commercial driving, nursing, insurance, and trade skills, setting them on a path toward stable, career-track employment. (I can’t emphasize enough how life-changing this support will be for the men and women involved!)

Voting is simple and only takes a minute, but the impact you’ll have is long-lasting. Your support will help thousands of aspiring entrepreneurs gain access to the training and certifications they’ll need to build brighter futures for themselves and for their families.

So, Can We Make it Happen?

The suspense is killing me!

I’m so proud of the work we’ve done so far, but we’re not done yet. We’ve reached our first goal of raising $5,000, and now we’re aiming to hit that second $5,000 mark. Every vote and comment on our story brings us closer to making that happen. So please, take a moment to visit our story on the Make More Happen microsite, cast your vote, and leave a comment. Together, we can double the impact of this donation and empower the next generation of entrepreneurs in Colorado.

Thank you so much for your continued support! To help us reach our goal, please vote for us here:
