The past two months have been packed with volunteers and projects.  A number of the volunteers have been students who have traveled to Denver from around the country.  I'm reminded of how important service opportunities are for learning and character development for youth today, as this note reminded me.....
 
"We just wanted to thank you so much for allowing our students a place to volunteer at all summer and for sharing your vision of a benevolent, more neighborly community with all of us.  Please keep up the important work that all the volunteers contribute to the people of Denver."  
- Youthworks summer staff
 
Thank you for the role you play in making Denver a great place to live for all of our neighbors!

BMW Championship 
The 2014 BMW Championship is coming to Denver and will be held at Cherry Hills Country Club on September 1-7.  You may be wondering what this has to do with ECM?  We have the opportunity to staff the food and beverage tents during the tournament and a percentage of sales will then be donated back to ECM!

ECM had another strong showing of volunteers in the month of July.  Thanks to all those who traveled many miles to come to Denver and those who served in their own backyards!
