Donate to help establish the first Asian American community center in Denver

On September 20, 2024, we purchased the building for the Asian American community center!

With the support of everyone who donated to the capital campaign: 

The Heartbeat of Our Community: Cultivating Connection and Culture, we raised $55,000.

​

To help cover the purchase price for the building acquisition, CACEN borrowed funds from community members, who helped us bridge the gap with short-term, no interest loans. This helped us cover $650,000 that we still needed to close on the building (and allowed us not to have to take out a bank loan). Thank you to these community members, who will be recognize as Founding Members of the community center.

​
In November 2024, we are moving into the next phase of permitting and building renovations. Your support/donation will help us cover architectural and engineering costs, renovations, equipment, and furniture. We still greatly need your help and every donation makes a difference.
