Diversify Whitewater — https://diversifywhitewater.org/
Diversify Whitewater is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that works to promote Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) in paddlesports by removing the barriers that may exist for Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) and allies in kayaking, canoeing, rafting, and stand-up paddleboarding. They had events scheduled in Colorado for 2022.
Please refer to their website for upcoming events.
Team River Runner — https://www.teamriverrunner.org/get-involved/chapters/colorado-ft-carsoncolorado-springs/
Their mission is “To provide all veterans and their families an opportunity to find health, healing, community purpose, and new challenges through adventure and adaptive paddle sports!” In lay terms: They “put butts in boats.”
The Ft. Carson/Colorado Springs chapter contacted RMCC regarding partnering with them in some way (e.g., to help with pool paddling sessions, with invitations to join our flat water or river trips, with planning other events to include their members, etc.). There are other chapters (Denver, Ft. Collins, Grand Junction, Montrose) that might be interested in a partnership if RMCC members are interested, but not willing to travel down to Colorado Springs.
Please refer to their website for more information.
