It’s a great help to the Commission! You can help even more by telling your co-workers about their opportunity to support the Commission.

Planned Giving

We also plan to implement a Planned Giving Program, which will allow you and others to leave a legacy to peace by securing the future of the Justice and Peace Commission. We invite you to recognize the Commission in your will, in trusts, life insurance policies and/or other means that can benefit both you and the Commission

Support 31 years of nonviolent social change! Pledge a monthly or quarterly gift to the Pikes Peak Justice and Peace Commission to support our educational programs and public witness. We are counting on you to create a reliable income from which to continue our work, plan future endeavors, and continue to grow.

Our hope is that 200 members will make a $5.00 monthly pledge, 100 of our members will make a $10.00 monthly pledge and so on. This pledge can be mailed in or dropped off.  Thank you for considering this most important way of sustaining the Commission.

Your gift is critical to our ongoing work for social justice and nonviolence.
