Give Pikes Peak kicked off its 2026 Give! Campaign on Sunday, November 1, with a goal of raising $1 million for 74 local nonprofits. The campaign runs through January 3 and follows a 2025 effort that raised $881,000.
Why it matters
The campaign aims to expand giving across the Colorado Springs area, where less than one percent of the local population participated in the previous campaign. Give Pikes Peak hopes to double its donor base this year.
The campaign targets $1 million, up from $881,000 raised in the 2025 campaign, which drew participation from under one percent of the local population. Final totals will not be known until the campaign closes on January 3.
