A huge shoutout to our amazing volunteers who rolled up their sleeves to support a Colorado Springs Navy veteran!. From pulling weeds to planting flowers, you didn’t just clean up a yard, you made someone feel seen & cared for. The veteran was really touched by your kindness.

Hot weather can be deadly for pets. The Red Cross warns: never leave pets in cars, avoid walking on hot pavement, and always provide shade + fresh water. Signs of heat stroke: heavy panting, red gums, weakness. Act fast—cool them down and call your vet.
