SLACKER BENEFICIARIES

Financial Contribution: The Slacker event is an active participant in contributing to the financial well-being of Friends of Charlie’s Place. These funds play a pivotal role in advancing Charlie’s Place's noble mission, supporting the operation of a no-kill shelter, facilitating the search for permanent homes for animals, and alleviating their suffering. The financial assistance provided by the Slacker event is instrumental in sustaining the shelter's critical initiatives.
Community Impact: The generous donations from the Slacker event reverberate throughout the local community, making a tangible impact. This support ensures that Charlie’s Place, as the sole animal shelter serving Clear Creek and Gilpin counties, can consistently maintain a clean and modern facility for orphaned animals. The community benefits from the continued existence of a well-equipped and compassionate shelter dedicated to the welfare of animals.
Navigating Budget Challenges: In the face of potential budget cuts, the financial backing from the Slacker event becomes even more vital for Charlie’s Place. This support is a lifeline that helps the shelter overcome financial hurdles, allowing it to persevere in its commitment to providing essential services for animals in need. By navigating these budget challenges, the Slacker event contributes to ensuring the ongoing welfare and well-being of countless animals under the care of Charlie’s Place.

Financial Assistance: The Slacker event extends critical financial support to Mount Evans Hospice, playing a pivotal role in their mission to provide compassionate and high-quality in-home care to senior citizens across four counties (Jefferson, Clear Creek, Gilpin, and Park). This financial backing ensures that Mount Evans can sustain and enhance its services, contributing to the well-being of elderly members in the community.
Covering the Gap: Acknowledging the limitations of reimbursements from Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial insurances, donations from the Slacker event act as a lifeline by bridging the gap between available funds and the actual costs of delivering healthcare services.
