Celebrating Impact & Building Community

At Warren Village, events are more than just gatherings—they’re powerful opportunities to fundraise, celebrate, and connect

Public events like our Aspire Gala play a vital role in raising funds to support our mission. They also give us the chance to honor community leaders who are making a profound difference, while celebrating the achievements of our residents as they share their experiences, goals, and triumphs.

Host Your Own Event

We also welcome community-driven events that support Warren Village. These “friend-raisers” not only generate funding, but also build awareness of our mission and bring people together in meaningful ways.

Perfect for companies, schools, faith communities, and neighborhood groups
Fun examples include: Sports tournaments, concerts or performances, block parties, or donation drives for new items

Ready to Get Involved?

If you’d like to support Warren Village through an event—big or small—we’d love to hear from you.

Contact: Shardai Perry-Miller at sperry-miller@warrenvillage.org.

Together, we can create events that inspire generosity, foster connection, and change lives.

Holiday family fest

Holidays should be joyful, not stressful.

For many Warren Village families, rising costs make the season especially difficult. By joining our Holiday Drive, you can help provide gifts, warmth, and hope where they’re needed most.

Aspire GALA

Every other year, Warren Village hosts the Aspire Gala, our signature fundraising event that raises critical support to empower single parents and their children on the path to self-sufficiency. This annual celebration brings together our community of supporters for an inspiring and impactful evening. Stay tuned for details about our next Aspire Gala.

Sponsorship opportunities are available. Please contact Michele Kilen, Director of Development, at 303.320.5057 to secure your sponsorship today.

Sponsor An Event

Event sponsorships are a vital component of our fundraising efforts in that they help underwrite event expenses. Sponsorships offer exposure to a broad audience, which will not only showcase your business’s commitment to the local community, but will support Warren Village’s mission. Please call at 303.320.5056 for more information.

Host a Fundraiser

From honoring a loved one or celebrating a special occasion to hosting a golf tournament, planning a 5K or having the kids set up a lemonade stand, your family, friends, and neighbors can help you raise thousands of dollars that will directly benefit Warren Village families. Hosting a fundraiser is fun and rewarding, and anyone can do it! For more information, please call 303.320.5052.
