Meet This Month's Partner
STUDENTS WHO WANT TO MAKE A CHANGE
A stronger community begins with people who choose to serve. The Glenwood Springs High School Air Force Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFJROTC) is a group of students committed to making a difference through service, leadership, and teamwork.
Guided by retired Air Force personnel who are passionate about helping young people succeed, Cadets develop leadership, responsibility, and character while serving their school and community. Although there is no requirement to join the military after high school, the program uses military leadership principles to help them grow into dedicated citizens of character who lead with pride and professionalism.
Glenwood Springs Ford is proud to recognize the Glenwood Springs High School AFJROTC as our August Community Partner and celebrate these students who are already making our community stronger.

Share With Us, Give With Us! Working Together, We’re Doing More for Our Community
Since opening our doors in 1978, we’ve believed that being part of a community means helping it grow stronger. We’ve supported local charities, nonprofits, and community events for generations, and in September 2019, we created the Glenwood Springs Ford Community Partners Program to build on that commitment. Each month, we partner with a different local nonprofit to help raise funds and awareness for the work they are doing in our community. We use our media platforms to introduce their organizations, share their stories, and help more people discover the difference they are making right here at home.
Our SHARE MORE. GIVE MORE. campaign invites our community to be part of that effort. Each month, Glenwood Springs Ford makes a $2,500 donation to our Community Partner. Our community can help increase that gift simply by sharing the featured Community Partner post on Facebook and Instagram. When a post reaches 50 shares, we increase our donation to $3,000. At 100 or more shares, we give $3,500. Every share helps bring greater attention to a local organization and the people it serves. It can introduce someone to a cause they have never heard of, encourage a neighbor to get involved, or help someone find support when they need it.
We believe the strength of a community grows when people know who is doing the work, understand why it matters, and find ways to be part of it. SHARE MORE. GIVE MORE. gives all of us a simple way to help local organizations reach more people, build greater awareness, and continue the important work they do for our community.

At Glenwood Springs Ford, we believe in driving more than cars- we strive to drive positive change. Our Community Partners Program is built around three core pillars that reflect our commitment to making a meaningful impact.
Youth Empowerment
This pillar supports programs and organizations that help young people thrive by providing access to education, mentorship, and skills development. By investing in youth initiatives, we aim to foster leadership, creativity, and confidence, ensuring the next generation has the tools to succeed and positively impact their communities.
Community Safety and Wellness
Our focus here is on enhancing the well-being and security of our community members. We partner with organizations promoting health, safety, and social services, from emergency response support to mental health advocacy. By prioritizing safety and wellness, we strive to create a healthier, more resilient community.
Outdoor Recreation and Conservation
Recognizing the beauty and importance of our natural surroundings, this pillar emphasizes the protection and enjoyment of outdoor spaces. We work with groups dedicated to preserving local ecosystems, expanding recreational opportunities, and promoting sustainable practices to ensure our environment remains vibrant for future generations.
