Why Partner

Three ways your partnership
reaches a real person.

Growth doesn’t happen at a once-a-year event. It happens in a daily rhythm, a weekly gathering, and the handful of moments that push someone further than they’d go alone.

Digital Discipleship

The app is how that community reaches someone wherever they live. Daily check-ins that keep people accountable, a prayer wall that gets prayed over, 1:1 mentorship paths, three virtual Bible studies a week. Your partnership funds the platform that turns a scattered community into a daily one.

Every single person is exactly who they are online. Not a single faker or poser.

Local Discipleship

Colorado Springs is where iron sharpens iron face to face. Run club, pickleball, men's and women's Bible study, worship nights, shared dinners. Not quarterly. Weekly. Your partnership keeps the doors open on the ordinary Tuesday that changes somebody's year.

It's not a transactional group, it's a transformative group.

Events & Missions

Retreats in the Colorado mountains, backpacking the Pacific Crest Trail, mission trips to Costa Rica. The moments where someone steps far enough out of their life to see it clearly. Your partnership removes the financial barrier for the people who need it most.

It's life-changing basically. My life has never been closer to God and overall not been better.

Real Stories

This is what your partnership funds.

Six people who walked in broken and walked out changed. Every one of them met Elevate through something a partner paid for.

Matt F.'s Elevate story

Matt F.

From suicidal to praising Jesus daily

Matt went through drug-induced psychosis and two rehab centers. He was suicidal, convinced his life was over. Through Elevate, he found brotherhood that didn't give up on him and a faith that gave him reason to live.

Jesus is the reason I'm still alive today.

Today: Now actively discipling others and leading in his local community.

Sydney K.'s Elevate story

Sydney K.

Grief hit in the worst possible moment

Sydney's grandmother passed away while she was on a mission trip, thousands of miles from home. Instead of grieving alone, she was surrounded by sisters who carried her through it.

God placed me in the right spot at the right time. I've learned to just fall into God.

Today: Still leaning on the sisterhood she found that week.

Scott S.'s Elevate story

Scott S.

Drove 27 hours to find his people

After a traumatic brain injury from college football, Scott lost everything. His identity, his community, his direction. He heard about Elevate and drove 27 hours with all his belongings to attend one event. He never left.

Every single person is exactly who they are online. Not a single faker or poser.

Today: Just got baptized. Found his church. Rebuilding from the ground up.

Sarah M.'s Elevate story

Sarah M.

Faith felt real. Growth felt stuck.

Sarah was 29 in Delaware. Her faith was genuine but stagnant, and she had no women around her who understood what she was reaching for. The app put a sisterhood within reach that her zip code never could.

You join and you instantly have women in your corner.

Today: Calls it the most life-changing group she's been part of.

Drew H.'s Elevate story

Drew H.

Lost 100+ lbs and found his purpose

When Drew's father died at 64, it shattered him. He was overweight, sedentary, and slowly giving up. Elevate gave him a reason to get off the couch, and brothers who refused to let him stay there.

There's zero chance I would have agreed to a 40 mile backpacking trip two years ago.

Today: Lost over 100 pounds. Now climbing mountains with the brotherhood.

Corey R.'s Elevate story

Corey R.

Lost everything in one week. Found Christ.

Corey lost his relationship and his business in the same week. He was at rock bottom. Then he went on the Elevate Costa Rica mission trip, and everything changed. He saw that joy doesn't come from circumstances.

Joy doesn't come from your circumstances, it comes from Christ.

Today: Getting baptized. Now serves on Elevate's board as Secretary.

In Their Words

More voices from the community.

It is the bridge between the life that you have and the life that you want.

Reagan M.

Not once have I felt any bit of judgment. The first words are I see you, I love you, and me too.

Matt O.

Being surrounded by amazing women who are passionate about growing closer to God. We all get to empower and encourage each other.

Lindsey B.

If you think this is not gonna help you, your brain is lying to you.

Andrew A.

People who have suffered and been through so much were the most generous, giving, loving, compassionate, happiest people I've ever met.

Sarah M.

He'll show you the beauty of the Lord, for sure.

The Ask

Keep this running.

It takes about $12,000 a month to keep Elevate operating. The app, the weekly gatherings, the missions, and the people who make it all happen. Monthly partners are how we get there and stay there.

Transparency

Where your partnership goes.

Operations

The app, the software behind it, and the essentials that keep Elevate running so the team can focus on people instead of logistics.

Local Gatherings

Weekly run club, park workouts, Bible studies, worship nights and shared dinners in Colorado Springs.

Scholarships

Making sure no one is kept out of community because of money. The people who need this most often can least afford it.

Events & Missions

Retreats, lodging, meals, travel support, and international mission trips to Costa Rica and beyond.
