No problem is unsolvable.
Team Up’s mission is to unite and support local organizations and individuals in addressing community-identified needs to help people thrive in Southwest Colorado.
We are a regional nonprofit serving people in Archuleta, Dolores, La Plata, Montezuma, and San Juan Counties of Colorado
Collaboration is Crucial
When an issue is too big to tackle for one organization alone, Team Up creates action teams comprised of the people who make things happen.
Community is Everything
-

Community Service
Team Up helps local organizations find “people power” through AmeriCorps placement to strengthen existing programs or create new ones. We also connect willing and skilled volunteers with the organizations that need them through connectswco.org.
-

Community Support
We help other nonprofits gain access to exclusive benefits and funding through grants, donation management, community partnership, and fiscal sponsorship.
Team Up connects local individuals and families with important resources in times of crisis.
-

Community Collaboration
We bring together organizations, government entities, school districts, and individuals through our Action Teams to develop collaborative solutions for community-identified needs that impact children, youth, and families.
AmeriCorps is Hiring!
