Today, we held the annual CAFCA/Raise The Future/Fostering Colorado Lobby Day at the Colorado State Capitol, and once again, it was a resounding success! Thanks to all who participated and for taking the time to join us. A HUGE THANKS to Rep. Lindsay Gilchrist for hosting us and for introducing us on the House floor.

We’d like just a minute of time from your day,
To please play our video—we’ve something to say.
It’s short and it’s sweet and a bit funny, too.
It outlines a favor we’re asking of you.

Please play our message, and after you hear it,
We hope that you’ll give with a kind-hearted spirit.
Just click on the link at the end of this poem
You can give from your smart phone or laptop at home.

Sometimes, it's tricky helping people understand what CAFCA does. Best way to do that is to visit our website at www.voiceforcokids.org. You'll see how our work helps keep the doors of treatment centers and care facilities open; it helps ensure that those centers and facilities have adequate funding to provide the highest quality of care. It brings about new legislation that benefits children and families---and so much more. Please consider a gift to CAFCA for Colo Gives Day and Giving Tuesday. You can donate today at https://www.coloradogives.org/cafca. Thank you!

Colorado Gives Day (CGD) is Dec. 9, but you can make your donation NOW and have it count toward the CGD total. Please---this year, help CAFCA with a tax-deductible gift that will keep our programs strong ready to help Colorado's most vulnerable children and families.
