Events

Gifts of Hope

Each year during the month of October, we hold our annual Gifts of Hope Fundraising Breakfast. More than just a fundraising event, Gifts of Hope is an opportunity for the Mental Health Center of Denver and members of the community to share ideas and learn more about how together we can make an impact on mental health in Denver. Read more about this annual event, watch a short video about it, and view pictures from the 2012 Gifts of Hope Fundraising Breakfast here 

Gifts of Joy

At the Mental Health Center of Denver, we believe that the holidays should be a joyful time for everyone. That’s why we created “Gifts of Joy,” our annual gift drive that helps to provide holiday gifts for children and adults in our community who might otherwise be forgotten. Learn more about how you can support "Gifts of Joy" here.
