The Gary Barnett Foundation

The Gary Barnett Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to the support of educational programs for economically disadvantaged and at-risk youth.

The Foundation provides assistance for after-school initiatives, drug education and intervention, leadership development, suicide prevention, and mentoring programs.

In 2005, with its first grant, the Gary Barnett Foundation helped to found the Suicide Prevention Coalition of Boulder, in memory of Gabe Oderberg. The Foundation has continued awarding annual grants to the HOPE Coalition (as it’s been renamed), which has made tremendous strides. Please visit their website to see how far they have come.
