Welcome to Ground Up Development, a catalyst for positive change in Denver. Our non-profit is dedicated to empowering communities through entrepreneurial initiatives, fostering youth and adult development, and providing essential resources for low-income and unhoused households. Our mission is clear: build futures, one community at a time.


The transformative solution to our community's challenges lies in collaborative synergy. By uniting diverse community partners, we collectively address the root causes of issues like community disconnect, hunger, youth violence, education and job training disparities, inadequate shelter, homelessness, social justice concerns, mental health, drug abuse, and challenges surrounding sexuality and spirituality.


Our initiatives focus on sustainable food systems, engaging local entities in community-supported agriculture, and forming strategic partnerships to bridge social, economic, and cultural divides. Programs like the Denver Urban Exchange Entrepreneurial Empowerment Program, Community Support Hub, Ourglass Transport Program, and ANT Dome Youth Services are central to creating a resilient and harmonious community.


Join us in this transformative journey towards safety, freedom, justice, and equality. Contact us at (303) 225-4580 to be part of building a brighter future for generations to come.
