Colorado Springs Community Foundation

When Crisis Strikes, Speed Matters

The 411 Foundation exists to ensure that the people of Colorado Springs are never alone in their moments of crisis. We strengthen the local nonprofit ecosystem, reduce confusion, and step in fast when someone needs a hand. Small acts of support, given quickly and respectfully, can change lives.
