Our Goal
As seniors age and need to change their living accommodations, many are forced to leave Summit County because the housing with the levels of care our aging seniors need do not exist. When such facilities are made available in Summit County, these seniors will be able to stay in their community and near family. Our goal is to create a place for seniors to live who can no longer live at their home.
Fundraising is important for SIS to continue pre-development planning with Summit County.
Staying in Summit has been a 501 (c) (3) since 2018 and SIS has chosen to use the Colorado Gives Day program as a cost effective way to process online donations. Show your support for Staying in Summit’s efforts to discover ways that allow seniors to age gracefully within the community they love.
Checks can be mailed to P.O. Box 6029, Frisco, CO 80443. Your donation represents a very important need in our community.

Our President, Andy Searls, has been advocating for Senior Housing in Summit County for over 20 years. A devoted team of professionals have joined the effort either as board members or committee members. In 2018 Staying in Summit (SIS) was established as a 501(c)3 non-for-profit organization.
Various land opportunities in Summit County dedicated to Senior Housing have been pursued through the years, but until now SIS has not been able to get a commitment for land. A Needs Assessment study in 2021 led to commitment by Summit County government in September 2023 to include Senior Housing in the Lake Hill Workforce Housing Development.
SIS is working to create solutions that allow residents to remain close to family, friends and the community they love.
Your support is an integral requirement to make senior housing a reality in Summit County.
