Building Community for the Future
For 30 years, English In Action has welcomed immigrants to their new home in the Roaring Fork Valley. We now need your support in creating a new home for English In Action.
We have launched our Welcome Home campaign to raise $5 million to build the English In Action Center for Communication in our existing El Jebel location. Our new Center will create a warm, welcoming, and productive learning environment for adult immigrants and ensure that everyone in the Valley has a place to feel heard, honored, and celebrated. What’s more, it will allow us to substantially grow our programs in the years to come.
Thanks to the generosity of supporters like YOU, we have raised over $4 million of our $5 million goal! Together, with our community’s help, we can raise the remaining funds needed to build our permanent home in the mid-valley.
Your investment in our $5 million capital campaign will provide English In Action with a much-needed new facility that demonstrates how seriously we take the work of creating community.

“English In Action is not just an organization focused on supporting people to learn a second language, but an organization that creates strong relationships based on respect between tutors and students. Those relationships help students, like me, develop a sense of strength and belonging. For many of us, English In Action is a second home.”
