💙 We want to hear from YOU!

Think about someone who believed in you before you believed in yourself.

Maybe it was a teacher who saw your potential, a coach who encouraged you to keep going, or a friend, family member, or mentor who helped you see what was possible.

Sometimes, one person believing in us can make all the difference.

At the Boys & Girls Clubs of the San Luis Valley, we see the power of those relationships every day. And as we look ahead to Colorado Gives Day, we want to celebrate the people who have made a difference in YOUR life.

Who believed in you? What did they say or do that stayed with you?

👇 Share your story in the comments or send us a message!

Over the coming weeks, we'll be celebrating the power of believing in one another and the relationships that make our community stronger.

Sometimes, making a difference in a young person's life starts with something pretty simple: showing up.

Garrett Marquez has been part of the Boys & Girls Clubs of the San Luis Valley team since 2018. Over those years, he's seen how important it is to create a place where kids can be themselves, build relationships, and know they have people in their corner.

And when Garrett talks about ways to make a difference, his message is simple: "Invest your time."

Because believing in a young person isn't just about telling them they can succeed. It's about being there, listening, encouraging them, and giving them room to grow.

As we approach Colorado Gives Day, we're celebrating the people who make those everyday moments possible.

💙 Meet Garrett and hear why he believes showing up matters.

“Because someone believed in me, I am now Dr. Luis Murillo.”

For Dr. Luis Murillo, Assistant Superintendent, the impact of having someone believe in him is personal.

Someone saw his potential, gave him structure, and encouraged him to pursue opportunities he might not have otherwise imagined. Today, he's paying that investment forward through his work with young people across the San Luis Valley.

His story is a powerful reminder of why investing in young people matters. The encouragement and opportunities we provide today can shape their lives for decades to come.

At the Boys & Girls Clubs of the San Luis Valley, we're working to make sure every young person has someone in their corner.

Your donation is more than a gift. It's an investment in who a young person can become.

💙 Help us create more stories like Luis's. Donate today: https://www.coloradogives.org/story/p3cjjf -grants

💙 Be somebody who believes.

Think back to when you were growing up. Was there someone who believed in you? Someone who encouraged you, made you feel like you belonged, or saw potential in you before you saw it in yourself?

Sometimes, one person believing in us is all it takes to start believing in ourselves.

At Boys & Girls Clubs of the San Luis Valley, we see the power of that belief every day. In the relationships young people build, the confidence they develop, and the opportunities they begin to imagine for their futures.

And that belief extends far beyond our Club walls. It lives in the families, mentors, neighbors, and community members who show up for the next generation.

We Believe in What's Possible.

Because when young people know their community believes in them, they have more than encouragement. They have a foundation of hope, belonging, and support to grow into who they want to become.

Colorado Gives Day early giving begins today. If you believe in what's possible for young people in the San Luis Valley, we'd love for you to be part of it.
