DENVER, February 2, 2021 -- CAP Management, a Colorado HOA management and sustainability consulting company, announced today its commitment to partner with the Alzheimer’s Association of Colorado, an organization dedicated to ending Alzheimer’s and dementia and providing resources for the some 76,000 Coloradoans living with the disease.
Founded in 1980, the Alzheimer’s Association of Colorado leads the way to ending Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia by accelerating research, driving risk reduction and early detection, and maximizing quality care and support. The Association provides Coloradans with a broad range of free programs and services, funding for Alzheimer’s and dementia research, and leads advocacy efforts within the state.
CAP Management’s mission is to create sustainable, resilient homeowners associations. Founded in 2003, the fast-growing company provides HOAs with services including property management, community planning, sustainability assessments, project oversight, and financial services. In 2020, they partnered with the University of Colorado’s Urban Resilience and Sustainability Program in the development of the first-ever comprehensive guide for improving the social, financial, and environmental sustainability of HOAs.
“In working with HOAs, our mission, ultimately, is to serve communities, to help them thrive, to foster togetherness within properties,” said Ari Shore, Chief Operating Officer with CAP Management. “We know this disease puts a strain on communities in Colorado. I can recall several owners in our portfolio living with Alzheimer’s, more who are caregivers, others unable to visit ailing family members because of the COVID risk. Members of our staff have family members who have struggled with this disease, so we’re in that community, too. We’re excited to partner with the Alzheimer’s Association and to explore ways to help from that community level.”
The executive director of the Alzheimer’s Association of Colorado welcomes the unique opportunity to partner with CAP Management.
“This is a very creative approach to reaching Colorado communities from the inside,” said Amelia Schafer, executive director of the Colorado chapter. “With over 8,000 residences in its portfolio, CAP Management touches many of the people living with this disease, as well as the 256,000 Coloradans who provide unpaid care for their loved ones. We are very excited about the potential for growing awareness of this disease and resources available at no charge to Colorado families.”
Shore stated that several strategies are under consideration, including holding community-wide events, hosting fundraisers, leveraging an extensive vendor network to host raffles and giveaways, and the formation of inter-association committees.
“We manage thousands of homes, interact with thousands of owners, work with hundreds of vendors,” said Shore. “There’s an incredible opportunity to mobilize that network around this cause.”
