The City of Help

The City of Help is a Colorado Springs-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit public charity focused on supporting people affected by addiction, trauma, and everyday hardship. Its mission is to help people find a path toward recovery and restoration by serving others, with programs grounded in Christian faith. The organization describes its services as including discipleship, life-skills education, counseling, vocational training, and connections to community ministries and support for groups such as older adults, people experiencing homelessness, school dropouts, and those seeking rehabilitation.

The City of Help is developing a vision for a central community hub that would bring faith-based organizations and practical learning opportunities together in one location. Proposed vocational activities include automotive, woodworking, gardening, aquaponics, arts, and sewing, alongside spaces for classes, worship, retail, and dining. The organization also accepts donations to support its work and currently highlights emergency fundraising for Dustin’s kidney and possible combined pancreas transplant. Its guiding approach is to offer help while encouraging participants to help others in return.
