The Colorado Springs

Chapter of National Charity League Inc., a national mother-daughter volunteer organization, is accepting applications from women with daughters in 6th grade through 9th grade.

“We are excited for the opportunity to welcome new mothers and daughters into our chapter as we continue to create lifelong philanthropists who graciously serve the community,” said Rebecca Frith, president of the Colorado Springs Chapter, which has nearly 170 members.

The chapter’s mother-daughter teams volunteered nearly 2,100 philanthropy hours in 2020-2021 for 14 philanthropic organizations, including the American Heart Association, Care & Share Food Banks, Children’s Hospital Colorado, the Humane Society, Rocky Mountain Women’s Film Institute, and Silver Key Meals on Wheels.

Over the past year, the chapter has provided meals for the Ronald Mcdonald House, supported the Susan B. Komen Breast Cancer foundation, worked with Friends of Cheyenne Canyon doing trail maintenance, and adopted families during the holidays to provide children with gifts.
