What is the Short Creek Dream Center? 

The Short Creek Dream Center is a residential life-skills, community engagement, and social services program to equip and empower the communities surrounding Colorado City, AZ, after generations of extreme spiritual abuse. As a Christ-centered and faith-based organization, the Short Creek Dream Center serves its community as Jesus did: meeting tangible needs while sowing eternal hope only found in Christ.

What we do and why we’re going

This will be our third year returning to Short Creek, partnering with them to help renovate and upkeep the center. We also love this hurting community to break the stigma left by past religious and spiritual abuse. Our most significant impact is the annual Boo Bash, a community event that gives families a fun, free, and candy-filled night out. Last year alone, you helped us provide more than $4,500 that went to both this community event and the Dream Center.

How you can help

Due to your fantastic generosity during our Dream City Golf Tournament, we do not need any financial donations at this time. However, there is a huge need to be filled: candy donations. Given the Halloween holiday and rural community, the candy supply is limited around Short Creek. Last year, we gave away more than 50 bags of candy. We hope to surpass that this year!

We will launch our Candy Drive on September 24 and run through October 22. Look for the donation dropoff spots in our lobby at that time.
