Mission
Bringing active members of our community together to provide 5-star, faith-based programming that center on fun, friends, and faith for children and adults with special needs.

Vision
We aim to provide first-class experiences for individuals with special needs and their families that offer opportunities to have fun, meet new friends, and live out their Christian faith. While observing how the Church has widely underserved those with disabilities, we are working with local churches in building a grassroots effort to develop a volunteer base that is compassionate and energized about serving the needs of the special needs community. We are building this volunteer base by bringing active adults together through sports leagues and tournaments and using this as our platform to teach and mobilize caring individuals. Our volunteers comprise the engine that allows us to provide these life changing programs and offer an incredible experience on an individual, 1on1 scale.

SPECIAL NEEDS PROGRAMS

All-Stars Club // Respite
A monthly respite night for children and adults with disabilities and their families. These 3-hour events offer a night off for parents and caretakers while our All-Stars engage in adaptive sports, arts & crafts, karaoke & dancing, and a chapel service. Every All-Stars is paired up with a volunteer buddy. This program currently runs on the 3rd Friday of each month at West Bowles Community Church in Littleton and we have plans in place to offer this on the 1st Friday at Cherry Hills Community Church by the end of 2017.

Night to Shine // Formal Prom
In partnership with the Tim Tebow Foundation we host an annual prom for over 120 adults with special needs at the Inverness Hotel. The night includes a red carpet paparazzi welcome, formal dinner, dancing, karaoke, beauty stations, and plenty of party favors. This event brings in more than 250 of our adult athlete volunteers.

All-Stars MobilePack // Food Packing
We provide an annual event that brings in more than 600 volunteers to pack thousands of meals for starving children around the world. We set up special stations so individuals with special needs can serve by packing food to contribute to the event's mission. This event is in partnership with Feed My Starving Children and hosted at West Bowles Community Church and feeds over 300 kids for an entire year.

Diego's Fund // Financial Support
We offer financial support to families who have children with disabilities and are struggling to pay their bills. We evaluate needs and offer help to directly pay bills or fund scholarships to their children towards programs that support their specific disability such as day programs, camps, etc.

Activ8 All-Stars // Sports
We offer sports programs to families and supply adequate volunteer assistance to serve individuals with special needs. Currently we partner with Sports Made Possible to offer adaptive baseball and have plans to provide basketball, soccer and volleyball programs.

All-Stars Barre // Fitness
In partnership with the Pure Barre Greenwood Village and Parker studios we offer fitness classes to individuals with disabilities. These classes offer an adaptive approach using small, isometric movements that are safe and effective.

ADULT RECREATION/VOLUNTEER GENERATION

Sports Leagues & Tournaments
Through Activ8 we offer volleyball and golf leagues and tournaments to adults ages 18 and over. Our sports programs allow us to build new networks of active adults that we can activate to volunteer and lead our All-Stars special needs programs. We currently have a base of over 2,000 athletes we have generated through our sports programs who create the foundation of our volunteer base.
