Meet Board Secretary Claire Hofferber - A supermom of three, a dedicated Foundation volunteer, an HR professional and a die-hard Denver Broncos Fan!


Passion

My passion is people, which is ironic since I'm an introvert!

I love connecting people, helping others, providing resources,

and making people feel good—whether that's with a genuine compliment or a laugh. The foundation gives me a place where

I can do all of those things! With the support of our generous community, our board has had the privilege of providing our local nonprofits with financial support to improve the lives

of Broomfield residents vastly. I am truly honored to serve alongside such fantastic people and am humbled by the hearts

of my neighbors. In a world that can be so dark, the foundation allows me to see how much good there is—especially in our

very special community.
