NAME CHANGE AND DONATIONS

 We’re so grateful for your support of Hope Ignites Colorado, formerly Boys Hope Girls Hope of Colorado! As we work through our legal name change with the Internal Revenue Service, we need your help to ensure gifts reach us without delay.

We’ve seen some confusion in online giving portals during this transition. While we’re updating our name to Hope Ignites in these systems, some portals and donor-advised fund (DAF) databases may still list us as Boys Hope Girls Hope until the IRS change is complete.  Please double-check the name, address, and EIN before you give:

Name: Hope Ignites Colorado (or Boys Hope Girls Hope of Colorado)
EIN: 84-1239769

Once your gift is made, you can help us with one additional step—email Mary Fran Tharp at [email protected] so we can confirm it’s been received and applied as intended.

Thank you for standing with us during this transition—we couldn’t do this without you.
