Friends, it is with mixed emotions that we announce the August/September 2023 issue of The Springs Echo has been published.

Our sincere thanks to all our contributors, supporters, and friends who have helped make this possible. There are too many names to list, but you know who you are.

Finally, please remember the audacious woman who started this paper nearly seven years ago with little more than a dream and a brave heart - Raven Canon.

Beloved community, we could use your help! As you may know, need is increasing at pantries city-wide. Because of YOU, we can maintain our commitment to serving the 1,000+ neighbors we see at our pantries every month with the best staples possible. If you can help with basics like mac & cheese and peanut butter, we - and our neighbors - would be so grateful.

“We’re likely to see people showing up at a doctor’s office in the coming months not knowing they’ve lost Medicaid.”

There was a time that we thought we'd never say this again, but WE NEED PEANUT BUTTER! Plus a few other staples to round out our food bags for our neighbors. Thanks to you, we served over 1,000 people in June at our six pantries!

Our Mission

“There is such a large gap of understanding and empathy between those experiencing homelessness and those that are housed. They have feelings, desires, dreams, hurts, sadness, and even happiness, just like those who are better off economically. The Springs Echo will be a voice for the voiceless and a platform to publish their writing, their art, and other possibilities yet still to discover.”

The masthead of The Springs Echo will remember our founder Raven Canon with an image of a broken-hearted Raven.

With its return, the Echo re-joins the International Network of Street Papers (INSP), of which the Denver VOICE is also a member. Canon’s idea to start the paper initially came from her time vending street paper Real Change in Portland, and the name The Echo was inspired by the VOICE.
