Community Welcome brochures will be distributed August 21st, 2024 from 4:30 - 8:30 pm.
The goal of the program is to help foster a sense of community and connection between students and long-term Fort Collins residents. Volunteers made up of CSU students and staff, city employees, and Fort Collins and CSU police go door-to-door delivering brochures to approximately 2,000 homes in neighborhoods close to the main campus. On August 21st, volunteers will distribute valuable information about City ordinances and expectations the University has for its students in a safe, socially-distant way.
