The Giving Week 2024 is Here!

First and foremost, we are people people.

Our love for humanity, our local communities and our Avanti family is the essence of the work we do — that is why we make a point to give back each year.

Since 2020, we have organized an annual Giving Week to support local nonprofits that improve the lives of those in need, especially those that address housing and homelessness. From holistic support to explicitly focused aid, we are proud to regularly raise funds for a range of organizations that establish environments where people do not just survive but thrive.

Previous Giving Week Results

From 2020–2022, participants in The Giving Week raised $40,675. In 2023, through the generous support from our community and a matching donation from Chairman Doug Andrews, we raised $128,364 in contributions. This impressive feat was not the work of intense, massive donations and sacrifice. It was a steady, sustained effort built from hundreds of small gestures, from people like you who believe in the power of collective action. When we work together, we can make an incredible impact and change lives for the better. The Giving Week 2024 Our fifth official Giving Week will run from Sept. 30 to Oct. 14. This milestone is a testament to the sustained dedication of our team, community members and supporters — and we are more than ready to continue our efforts with increased vigor.

The organizations we have chosen to support this year address homelessness, employment and career training, children in foster homes and economic disparity. Across the nation, these five nonprofits focus on empowering local populations in difficult situations. We at Avanti resonate with their missions, which all align with one of our guiding phrases — sempre Avanti; always welcome.

Donate to all of our chosen nonprofits or an individual organization that speaks to you here.

This year, we are fundraising for the following local organizations:

Entryway: Entryway is a national 501(c)3 organization that transitions individuals and families at risk of or experiencing homelessness to economic self-sufficiency by providing career training, full-time employment and housing opportunities in partnership with the real estate industry. Entryway operates in 12 geographic service markets and donations for this campaign can be direct to two: Entryway Denver (select ‘Entryway’ from the dropdown) or Entryway Arizona.

Mile High United Way: Working side-by-side with the community, Mile High United Way takes on critical human services issues facing its seven-county footprint including the Metro Denver, Boulder and Broomfield communities. Through their community programs and initiatives, they focus on three interconnected community priorities — giving all children a strong start, supporting education and academic success and creating economic opportunity for all. Their affordable housing programs focus on transitioning young adults from the welfare system to stable housing, education on financial wellness and working with local non-profits who provide affordable housing options.

Foster Kids KC: Foster Kids KC is a dedicated non-profit organization in Kansas City, Missouri, with a mission to support and improve the lives of children in the foster care system. They work tirelessly to provide essential resources, advocacy, and a supportive community for foster children and the families that care for them. Foster Kids KC’s commitment to ensuring that every child in foster care has access to a loving and stable home is evident through their programs and services. By connecting foster families with valuable resources and offering educational support, they are making a profound difference in the lives of these vulnerable children.

Chapman Partnership: With the motto, "No one sleeps on the streets of our community," Chapman Partnership's vision supports a more equitable society and a healthy, vibrant Miami-Dade County. They address the most basic of human rights and needs while helping to restore the dignity and respect of men, women and children experiencing homelessness. Chapman Partnership manages two Homeless Assistance Centers located in Miami and Homestead. Their residents work together with case managers to create a comprehensive personalized plan, guiding them throughout their journey. With fully equipped medical and dental clinics, family dorms, cafeterias, classrooms, Wi-Fi, daycare, basketball courts and even a dog kennel, Chapman Partnership helps provide all the resources needed for motivated residents to become self-sufficient.

One of our core beliefs is that it is essential to “Be A Good Citizen,” and we make every effort to embody that idea. We invite all our employees, partners and friends to join us in that effort this Giving Week as we strive to improve the lives of the people in our communities who need it most.
