Welcome to Groundwork Denver

We partner with communities across metro Denver to improve the physical environment and promote health and well-being.

We are doers. We plant trees, we improve parks, we clean up rivers and the air, we insulate houses, we grow gardens, and we work alongside local youth and volunteers to get it done. At Groundwork Denver, we support the development of leaders from the neighborhoods where we work through our Youth Green Leadership program. We build bridges between residents, businesses and government to achieve the common goal of positive environmental change. Our work improves community representation in decision-making, while taking action to ensure equal access to a clean and healthy environment for everyone.
