Resource Central's programs have helped 1,000,000 community members tackle climate change by saving water, conserving energy, and reducing waste—and there is much more work to do. Together we can help families prepare for the next drought, reduce utility bills, foster a culture of reuse, and take climate action.
With your support, we can create the world's most popular programs to influence climate action:
- Materials Reuse: Build a national model for reducing waste.
- Water Programs: Make waterwise landscapes the norm in Colorado.
- Renew Our Schools: Create the standard for student engagement in energy conservation in Colorado.
The mission of Resource Central is putting conservation into action.
Resource Central was founded in 1976 (originally as the Boulder Energy Conservation Center) by a group of community-minded citizens seeking ways to help reduce our dependence on non-renewable resources. Over the last 48 years, the organization has become an integral part of the Front Range community partnering with 50+ local governments and water providers and thousands of individuals to put conservation into action. We offer programs and services that have measurable conservation impact around reducing the use of water and energy as well as the reuse of building materials.
We share practical solutions for conservation and sustainable living through direct services, seminars, youth engagement competitions, and community-based communications. Additionally, the strategic partnerships we maintain help mutually strengthen and broaden our collective work.
