Who We Serve
Senior Citizens
According to the Metro Denver Economic Development Corporation, the Denver Metro Area’s population will increase to 3.6 million residents by 2030. Approximately 20% of the population will include residents aged 60 years and older. CityReach intends to transform the lives of older adults by meeting their physical, emotional, and spiritual needs through practical service and intentional fellowship. By connecting and collaborating with like-minded organizations and individuals, resources are made available, provided, and distributed among the most needy. Some services provided include lawn care, snow removal, house cleaning, hauling services, counseling services and fellowship. As lives are transformed, it allows older adults to age safely in the homes, with dignity and lacking nothing as it relates to their physical emotional and spiritual needs.
Families
Families are the foundation for which a society grows, thrives and functions. By connecting to families throughout the Denver Metro Area, CityReach is able to understand the unique needs of families and the communities in which they live. As trusted relationships are built, CityReach is able to either directly provide support and resources, or to collaborate with our network of organizations and individuals to ensure needs are met. Some examples include access to food, rental assistance, counseling and other daily essentials such as clothes and fellowship.
Children
In the Denver metro area, the poverty rate for minors (under 18) was 11.4% in 2024, according to the Axios analysis of U.S. Census Bureau data. This is a significant increase from the 9.9% rate in 2019. Additionally, children in our community face the dangers of drugs, crime, and homelessness at an alarming rate CityReach directly impacts children through the practical services provided to families including counseling services, rental assistance, and food access. Further, CityReach has developed connections with a network of partners dedicated to providing safe spaces and resources to help children cope with challenges and lift themselves up to meet their potential and calling.
