Why Colorado Springs
Colorado Springs has one of the youngest populations and highest concentrations of active faith communities in the country. Garden of the Gods, Pikes Peak, hiking, sports leagues — the outdoor lifestyle here is unlike anywhere else.
Elevate Community was founded here. Our Colorado Springs chapter is the most active, with events every week of the year and a crew that actually shows up for each other.
Colorado Springs has more churches per capita than almost any US city. We built something that meets that energy.
Run clubs and hiking groups were built for this city specifically. Garden of the Gods is our backyard.
Built specifically to solve the problem of moving to COS and not knowing anyone. You won't feel that here.
Questions
Elevate Community is a faith-based nonprofit community for young adults aged 18–30. Our Colorado Springs chapter hosts weekly events, local activities, and coordinates mission trips — all organized through a single iOS app.
Download the Elevate Community iOS app when it launches and select Colorado Springs as your local chapter. Browse events, join groups, and RSVP directly in the app. No dues. No gatekeeping.
We are faith-rooted. Our community centers around following Jesus, serving others, and genuine human connection. You don't need to have all your questions answered to belong here — you just need to want community.
Primarily 18–30, though all are welcome. Most of our events are designed with young working adults and college students in mind.
Come alone or bring a crew — both are completely normal. Most people find their first run club or game night is an easy entry point. Events are explicitly designed to not require "knowing anyone."
