Bright Leaf is lifting up low-income and disabled seniors throughout Colorado Springs by providing critical home repairs and accessibility upgrades they wouldn’t otherwise receive. Many older adults in our community live on fixed incomes and face everyday challenges—like unsafe flooring, outdated showers, and hazardous steps—that threaten their independence and safety.

Bright Leaf’s all-volunteer teams step in with practical solutions, such as installing walk-in showers, repairing essential structures, and modifying homes for comfort and safety. These repairs make it possible for seniors to age at home, surrounded by neighbors and memories, rather than face premature moves due to mobility limits or unresolved hazards.

The impact is direct and local: every project means another Colorado Springs resident can live more comfortably and securely. With rising costs and more seniors needing help, Bright Leaf depends on caring community members to volunteer their time or provide support.

If you feel called to help in our area, consider volunteering or offering a donation—your compassion makes lasting change. Visit brightleafinc.org

Explore rewarding volunteer options and be part of something meaningful. Together, we can make an impact!

👩‍🦳 Did you know studies show that senior volunteers are crucial to communities and gain personal benefits, including better mental and physical health?! Volunteering helps bridge generation gaps, offers fulfillment, and can even extend lifespan.
