Alliance for Sustainable Colorado

THE MISSION OF THE ALLIANCE IS:

To catalyze the shift to a truly sustainable world by fostering collaboration among nonprofits, businesses, governments, and academia.


Programs of the Alliance include:

The Alliance Center – an office building for non-profit tenants and meeting place for collaboration with non-tenants.

CASBA – the Colorado Alliance of Sustainable Business Associations

Building Colorado Coalition - is promoting high performance buildings throughout Colorado.

Educational programs – speakers series; tours of the Alliance Center, which is registered for two LEED certifications; partnerships with universities and colleges for classes

Capacity building – workshops and trainings for non-profit staff

Collaborative partnerships – including the Apollo Alliance and City of Denver Greenprint Council

The long-term goal of the Alliance is to create a national center where sustainability advocates from around the nation will have a place to meet, exchange ideas, learn, and plan.  A capital campaign will be undertaken in 2007 to raise funds for an adjoining building to expand the Alliance Center and open the national center.
