What is the Colorado Youth Climate Summit (CYCS)?
The Colorado Youth Climate Summit (CYCS) is an educational initiative co-designed and co-led by youth leaders to
empower young people to address the impacts of climate change. By engaging with sustainability experts,
policymakers, and their peers, participants enhance their skills and resilience. The Youth Climate Summit is expected

based learning, enabling teens to develop their own climate action plans. CYCS provides access to cutting-edge
research and innovation science, connects with industry professionals, and showcases green career opportunities,
preparing youth to become climate advocates and leaders.
01 Learning: Dive deep into regional climate issues and realistic solutions
02 Connection: Build friendships and broaden your network of impact
03 Action: Choose, plan, and execute a local climate action project
The mission of the CYCS is to create engaging opportunities for rural Colorado youth to become empowered as climate action leaders and advocates statewide.

AgriSummit 2025
About AgriSummit
One of the most inspiring agricultural events of the year, the theme of Guidestone's 10th annual AgriSummit Conference is Nurturing Connections, Nourishing the Future. We'll highlight the many deep-rooted and widespread connections at the heart of local food systems. The event will offer educational sessions, networking opportunities, and discussions focused on local food production, food access and agritourism in our region. All Friday sessions will include simultaneous interpretation in Spanish.
Event highlights include:
Keynote address
Workshops
Breakout sessions
Panel discussions
Social networking events
Resources for current producers and beginning farmers and ranchers
Avenues for community members to engage in supporting regional food systems
Open house seed swap & early farmer's market
In the spirit of connection, Guidestone is not only putting on the main event, Agrisummit, but also partnering this year with Colorado State University’s Food Systems Institute as the Mountain Region's Regional Food Summit partner and the Colorado Grain Chain for the first annual Colorado Grain Summit.
We can’t wait to see you there!

Colorado Gives Day
Colorado Gives Day (which is officially December 10 but you can give early!) is your opportunity to make a lasting impact on C4, our community, and our planet. We need your support now more than ever and invite you to join us in this movement and help us reach our audacious goal of $15,000!
Your contribution will directly support our mission of fostering a healthier planet and community through initiatives that inspire the conservation of our natural environment. This support is vital to continuing the success of C4's work around energy efficiency, environmental education, sustainable food, and waste diversion.
From now until December 10, your impact can be doubled thanks to matching donations!
Two donors have committed to matching $6,500 in total! But we need your support to secure these matching funds and bring us to $13,000-- almost to our overall goal!
And if you set up a recurring monthly donation, Colorado Gives Foundation will match your monthly donation up to $100 and up to $250,000 in total across all organizations! As an added bonus, Colorado Gives Foundation and FirstBank are also offering a $1M+ Incentive Fund of which C4 can receive a portion based on our percentage of the total raised.
This is a fantastic opportunity to maximize your impact and support our efforts. Thank you for being a part of our community!
