Happy New Year!

It's been a great start to 2012 here at the Colorado Chapter...

We've moved into a physical office space and hired a part-time Development Assistant. We have invited new board members onto our Advisory Board. We're trying out new programs for 2012 and doing more to serve the mission.  Watch for all the details soon!

2012 is sure to be another great year!

As we get settled into our new space, we are working hard to update our calendar and share news about upcoming programs and events. Our 2012 calendar of programs and events are now on the website. You can grab a sneak peak at what we have planned on the website as well as on the side bar of our newsletter. We want to see you there - mark your calendars today!

As always, you can get the most up-to-date news from NHF Colorado through our blog, Facebook Page and Cause, and Twitter feed.  We encourage everyone to get involved, voice their opinions, and share feedback to help NHF Colorado grow. Please do not hesitate to contact me at any time - I welcome your feedback and thoughts!

Take care,
