Your Community, Your Voice, Your Access

Hello,

Welcome! My name is JK Perry and I'm the executive director at High Five Access Media. It's a role I've served in for 17 years. My time here has opened my eyes to the importance of community media in Eagle County. Our team is actively changing the lives of local youth for the better, weaving together the fabric of our community through countless hours covering government meetings, as well as nonprofit and community events. All so you can stay involved in your neighborhood, town, and county.

We are facing a monumental challenge. For nearly forty years, High Five has relied primarily on Comcast cable subscriber fees from the towns of Vail and Avon. As people “cut the cord” in favor of streaming services, this loss of subscriber fees is devastating for High Five.

To maintain and expand its essential programs, new funding sources are crucial to keep these valuable storytelling tools available in Eagle County.

Your support for High Five Access Media provides a crucial platform for countless students to realize their dreams and transform their futures. By donating, you are helping build a community, create opportunities, and change lives.

High Five Access Media offers something invaluable to youth, and the community: a sense of belonging and respect, transcending media training. The staff's commitment extends to teaching independence and equipping people on a journey to self-reliance.

The organization provides more than media resources; it creates opportunities, nurtures talent, and changes lives.

Please join me in this transformative journey, celebrating our end-of-year theme Your Community, Your Voice, Your Access. Let's give a high five to hope, ambition, and the endless potential of the human spirit. Your contribution can turn dreams into reality.

Sincerely,

JK
