Hope1 Solutions’ Charitable Giving Gives Back to Dolls for Daughters®

Since its inception, D1 has been proud to be able to give time, money and services to many local charities. At D1, we recognized that there was still more we could do.  In light of challenging economic times in 2009, the D1 Executive Team launched Hope1 Solutions, a program to help alleviate some of the financial pressure on non-profit organizations that have seen many of their former benefactors forced to reduce or eliminate their assistance.

In the Summer of 2009, D1 committed to give a portion of our proceeds to selected charities. Our plan was simple.  We sought out some of the great charities working in our community to be part of the Hope1 Program.  The original 5 charities were The Children’s Hospital, CCIE, Mi Casa, the Denver Venture School, and the Denver Children’s Museum.  Then, we went to our clients and informed them of the Hope1 program, the charities that would benefit, and that any time they work with us, just let us know which charity they would like their project to benefit.  The launch was a huge success, and as we already knew, our clients have big hearts and wanted to participate.  In the first few weeks, we were able to set aside funds that will go to some of our original charities as well as the addition of a couple more recommended by our clients, including Dolls for Daughters®.

Ultimately, in addition to raising funds, we hope to raise awareness of how businesses and people can work together to positively impact the lives of others.

If you would like to know more about the Hope1 program and how you and your business can work with us to raise awareness and funds, please contact us at hope1.AT.doc1solutions.com.  We look forward to hearing from you.

Kenzi's Causes

In 2007, Jessica Bachus started Dolls for Daughters®, after her daughter Kenzi was stillborn. She created an annual holiday Toy Drive for Colorado children who would not otherwise have toys during the holidays. Today, Kenzi's Causes collects more than 100,000 toys, stocking stuffers, books, toothbrush/toothpaste kits, backpacks, lunch boxes and other items to change the lives of children in Colorado through our programs. At this annual event, families are also provided with community resources to help improve their lives and the lives of their children.
