I was asked why I support Living Journeys and the answer is simple: community and local.
I moved a lot as a kid and it wasn’t until I moved to the Gunnison Valley that I began to understand what community truly means. From the moment I arrived in Crested Butte in 1987 I was blown away by the spirit of giving/helping others and the unwritten motto, “We take care of our own”, that is a part of everyday life in this small community.
Living Journeys portrays that motto beautifully by doing their best to support all community members and their families who are living with cancer.
Bottom line, donations to Living Journeys stay in the valley and help our neighbors and friends.
