COLGBTQCC: What’s happening in the LGBTQ Business Community

By Jim Smith, Chair, Colorado LGBTQ Chamber of Commerce

Can you believe the first quarter has already come to an end!? I know I am personally thrilled to see the warmer weather come our way. I love the four seasons we have in Colorado and they tend to be spaced just about right that when I finally tire of one the next is upon us. And Spring is always one to bring a lot of changes and that is no exception with the chamber!

I am very excited to make a few announcements.

We Moved!
Well more like we have an actual office space! Thanks to the generosity of the American Red Cross and the Denver Public Schools we now have a physical office space. The address is:

Colorado LGBTQ Chamber of Commerce
444 Sherman Street, Suite DBC
Denver, CO 80203
720-900-4522

And while I am throwing thanks and appreciations, a huge THANK YOU goes to Christopher Leach and his team at Contract Furnishings for their very generous donation of office furniture for the new office. The space is still a little bare on the walls but coming together! Do you have something you want to donate to the office? Let me know at jim.smith@colgbtqcc.org

Welcome Boulder Chapter!

That’s right, our first chapter is starting up in the Boulder County area and we have a Launch party on May 20th. Come celebrate our growing chamber at this event and meet our newest members!
