Community Impact & Local Partnerships

KEPHART believes everyone deserves a well-designed place to live, work, and play.

That belief drives our commitment to creating meaningful community impact across Denver, Colorado and Phoenix, Arizona. From the projects we design to the partnerships we build, we focus on strengthening communities through thoughtful design, collaboration, and continued investment in the places we call home.

We are proud to partner with organizations that share our commitment to affordable housing, community development, and nonprofit support. Together, we work to make a lasting impact across the Colorado and Arizona communities we serve.

Below are just a few of the organizations and initiatives we support. If you have a cause aligned with our mission, we welcome the opportunity to connect.

The Strategic Housing Alliance

Colorado is facing a critical shortage of affordable housing. The Strategic Housing Alliance, a partnership between KEPHART, CRHDC, and The Espinoza Group, is dedicated to addressing this need.

By combining our expertise, resources, and shared commitment, we are helping expand access to affordable housing solutions in Colorado communities, creating opportunities for individuals and families to thrive.

Brothers Redevelopment Paint-A-Thon

Each year, KEPHART participates in the Paint-A-Thon, a program by Brothers Redevelopment that provides free exterior home painting for income-qualified homeowners.

With exterior painting costs often exceeding $5,000, this initiative helps homeowners maintain safe, livable housing while allowing them to direct resources toward essential needs like healthcare, food, and utilities. Our team is proud to contribute hands-on volunteer work that directly supports housing stability in the Denver community.

Hope Communities

KEPHART partners with Hope Communities to strengthen neighborhoods and create pathways to economic and personal opportunity.

Through support of affordable housing programs, education initiatives, and community services, we help promote long-term stability for families across Colorado. Our team actively participates in their annual Treasure Store by volunteering and donating gifts to children and families in need.

We Don't Waste

We Don’t Waste is a Denver-based nonprofit working to reduce food insecurity and food waste by redistributing quality, unused food to local organizations.

KEPHART supports this mission by volunteering at food distribution events and contributing resources to help expand access to healthy food. Through this partnership, we’re helping address food insecurity in the Denver metro area while supporting a more sustainable food system.

Fit for a Cause

Through Fit for a Cause, KEPHART connects employee wellness with charitable giving.

Team members log hours of physical activity, which are converted into donations to nonprofits of their choice. This program reinforces our culture of health, engagement, and giving back, further supporting organizations that create meaningful community impact at the local level.

With offices in Denver, Colorado and Phoenix, Arizona, our dedicated and creative team of architects and land planners has designed and planned over 500,000 homes across the country since 1974.
