We Serve Colorado
Join Us! Big Shots Supporting Little Tots Un-Luncheon
November 1 - 30
During the month of November, Immunize Colorado will host the much-anticipated 2021 Big Shots Supporting Little Tots Un-Luncheon peer-to-peer fundraising campaign. The month-long campaign will culminate in a virtual Un-Luncheon program and cooking demonstration on November 30.
Our Impact
As Colorado’s only statewide independent 501c(3) nonprofit organization committed to keeping Coloradans healthy through immunization, Immunize Colorado elevates the essential role vaccines play in preventing illness and promoting health for all of Colorado; we do this by building awareness for vaccines, educating health care providers, and advocating for policies that protect Coloradans with the goal of increasing vaccination rates.
Vaccines Save Lives
Vaccines avert over $400 million in hospitalization charges in Colorado each year.
Vaccines prevent over 8,600 hospitalizations among Colorado children each year.
Vaccines prevent 4 - 5 million deaths worldwide each year.
In the U.S., vaccines protect people of all ages against 17 dangerous or deadly diseases.
Supporting Vaccines For All
We believe that all groups—regardless of race, ethnicity, ability, income or other factor—deserve to have accurate information about vaccines, and reliable access to them.
