The Northern Colorado Business Report's Giving Guide is a comprehensive directory of the area's leading nonprofit organizations. It seeks to turn the spotlight on an important sector of the local economy — philanthropy — with articles of interest to nonprofits, companies that contribute to them and individuals who volunteer on their behalf.

The Giving Guide includes information on approximately 650 nonprofits serving Larimer and Weld counties, compiled from a number of sources from the organizations themselves to their financial filings with the Internal Revenue Service.

Northern Colorado's economy is influenced in many positive ways by its nonprofits. You can use the Giving Guide to determine where your own company or employees might be able to contribute in a positive way in return, and continue the region's tradition of people helping people.
