Times are hard for everyone right now—but they’re especially hard for seniors living on fixed incomes. A kind, humble senior couple in Broomfield, Colorado recently had their Xcel Energy power shut off after falling behind on their bill. They now owe $1,500 in missed payments, and without help, they’re facing dangerously cold nights as winter settles in.

This couple has spent their lives working, raising a family, and contributing to their community. Now, in their later years, they’re struggling to keep up with rising costs—utilities, groceries, medications, everything. They’ve reached out everywhere they could for help, and so have we:

Local assistance programs said they’re outside the service area
Others shared that funding has run out
Even Broomfield FISH, a trusted community resource, was unable to assist at this time

Despite all of that, we know Colorado communities show up for one another—especially for our seniors. No one deserves to sit in a cold, dark home because they simply couldn’t stretch their fixed income any further.

What We’re Asking

We’re raising $1,500 to help this couple pay off the overdue balance and get their power restored immediately. Every dollar helps—whether it’s $5, $10, or more. Your kindness will directly keep two vulnerable seniors safe, warm, and stable.

Why It Matters

Winter temperatures are dropping fast. Seniors are at higher risk of hypothermia, illness, and complications when living without heat or electricity. Restoring their power isn’t just about comfort—it’s about safety, dignity, and survival.

How You Can Help

Donate if you’re able
Share this campaign with friends, neighbors, and local groups
Offer a message of encouragement for the couple

Your support—big or small—will be a blessing during a frightening and uncertain time for them.

Let’s show this couple that they’re not alone, and that their community still cares. Together, we can get their lights and heat back on before the cold weather moves in.

Thank you for helping Colorado seniors stay safe and warm.
