Mission-Driven, Impact-Focused.

At Resource Central, we believe in implementing high-impact conservation programs that get results. Last year was another record-breaking year of conservation impact and climate action. Our programs collectively saved 133 million gallons of water (up 15% from last year), diverted 4.4 million pounds of materials (a 20% increase), and engaged 29,000 students who completed 883 energy conservation actions in their schools.

Take a closer look at some of the ways we have leveraged your support to drive measurable conservation results in communities across Colorado with programs that are increasingly becoming a national model for advancing sustainability:
