Yes.
Coloradans are being offered up to $1,100 in monthly stipends to house migrants through the nonprofit Hope Has No Borders. People who wish to participate can call Mile High United Way’s 2-1-1 hotline in the Denver metro area for information.
Hope Has No Borders formed in May 2024. By mid-June, it had placed seven migrants in homes and identified 20 hosts for up to 90 people. Most hosts were offering stays of between three months and a year and asked for a monthly stipend of $200 to $900.
The group receives no financial assistance from Mile High United Way, Denver or the state of Colorado. The organization said it is funded through donations and is obtaining grants and partnerships to help make more placements.
More than 42,000 migrants have come to Denver since December of 2022, straining the city’s ability to provide housing and other aid.
