ABOUT ALLISON HINES
A long-time Fort Collins resident and Colorado State University alumna, Allison began working in nonprofit development after graduating in 2001. During her tenure with United Way of Larimer County, Allison led the organization in increasing revenue by more than 40%. She grew several programs supporting local children and families, including establishing an endowed fund for WomenGive child care scholarships and expanding the Colorado Reading Corps tutoring program into all three Larimer County school districts.
She was recognized as the Fort Collins Chamber Young Professional of the Year in 2015 and actively volunteers with Poudre School District, Foothills Rotary, and the Fort Collins Soccer Club.

For Allison Hines, the BGCLC opportunity is an honor:
“The work of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Larimer County is vital to inspiring and elevating kids in our community, ensuring that every child that walks through our doors feels both supported and accepted. As a full-time working Mom to a 10-year-old little boy, I know first-hand how important a feeling of connection and belonging is to his academic and developmental success. I’m excited to join the incredible staff at BGCLC and continue to expand our reach, ensuring that all families have access to our programs.”
Echoing this sentiment, Deirdre Sullivan, President, and CEO of United Way of Larimer County, is excited about this opportunity for the two organizations and the work ahead. “There is so much opportunity for expanded collaboration, partnerships, and demonstrating innovative ways of working to meet the needs of all youth and families in Larimer County.
