2022 Annual BHC Fundraiser

Boulder Housing Coalition

Create community, enjoy live performances, free food, and craft cocktails while supporting affordable cooperative housing in Boulder, CO

DV8 Distillery

For more than 20 years, The Boulder Housing Coalition has been providing permanently affordable community-focused housing in Boulder through the creation of co-ops. Our four co-ops provide homes for more than 60 low-income Boulder residents - artists, activists, scholars, and change-makers. We provide trainings in social justice, consensus decision-making, restorative conflict mediation, and many more essential cooperative skills. On September 29th we will gather at DV8 Distillery, Boulder's only queer club, to celebrate our residents and our greater community while raising money to support our organization's mission. Throughout the night we will have live performances, free food, craft cocktails, and a silent auction. The event will be family-friendly from 6:00-9:00.
