Our Mission

Our mission is to open pathways for Denver youth, families, and seniors to thrive through direct services, collaborative partnerships, and community support.

Our Vision

Our vision is a future where every person has the opportunity to thrive, build stability, and reach their full potential.

Friends of DHA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2011 in partnership with the Denver Housing Authority (DHA). We are dedicated to bridging critical funding gaps for programs that empower individuals and families in DHA communities to thrive. Through strong board leadership and strategic fundraising, we support essential programming aimed at breaking the cycle of poverty and fostering long-term independence.  

 

Our funding is focused on programs and initiatives that help low-income individuals and families in five key focus areas: Youth Development, Community Engagement, Digital Literacy, Economic Self-Sufficiency, and Healthy Living. Through these efforts, we create lasting opportunities for growth, security, and self-reliance for those we serve.

What The Community Says

"Being part of this community showed me how to connect with people again and give back. I found a community where people support each other, and it inspired me to help my neighbors and be there for others. I wouldn’t be where I am now without that support.”
