Applewood Plumbing Heating & Electric carries on their comment to uplift the community by granting a $5,000 reward to Invest in Kids, a local nonprofit supporting Colorado children, for their quarterly Caring Community Giveaway. The focus for last quarter’s giveaway was improving the livelihoods of children and families.
How We Chose
Applewood employees nominated three organizations dedicated to helping children of Colorado, then opened a voting opportunity to the community to choose which child-centered mission resonated with them most. Community members gravitated towards the work Invest in Kids does and chose them to receive the Giveaway.
“This company tradition means so much to us because it brings our employees and community together to help a deserving local charity achieve their goals and benefit Colorado for the greater good,” said Josh Ward, owner of Applewood.

By putting in the time and effort to support the youth of Colorado, Invest in Kids believes they can strengthen the community today and for the future.
