October Extreme Endeavors: We Are Throwing A Party!
It's hard to believe we are nearing the end of another Work Day season! With our final Saturday this weekend and a final weekday group next week, I would like to say thank you to everyone who has given their time as a volunteer this year. And as we celebrate a great year, the ECM way to celebrate is to throw a party / fundraiser, which is Art is in the Air. I hope you can join us on November 7!

Extreme Teams Efforts: Deep Thoughts from Jack Handey
We all have our own reasons for volunteering, and I am sure most of our intentions are noble but, can and do our personal agendas and intentions get in the way of the spirit of helping, and service? I think sometimes, yes; how can they not…. we are human, and we are works in progress.

September Extreme Endeavors: Denver Gothic...Volunteer Style
During our volunteer days, we have lots of people participating and have all kinds of personalities shining through that put their unique stamp on what we're doing. During a recent volunteer day, a few volunteers had fun recreating their version of American Gothic, which we will call "Denver Gothic"...volunteer style.
Get Your Hands Dirty in Denver!
As you may know, each year, Extreme Community Makeover picks a theme. We pick the themes based on the overall vision of ECM. Past year’s themes were Be Kind. Do Good; Be a Good Neighbor; and Growing Deep Roots. This year’s theme is Get Your Hands Dirty. Along with each theme, we have t-shirts available to spread that message during the volunteer season.
