Bigwigs and Benefactors of the Pikes Peak Region

Read a sample Read a sample
From Colorado Springs’ wealthiest and most prominent citizens, including Spencer Penrose and Winfield Scott Stratton, to the lesser-known but vitally important contributions of the Beth-El Nurses and American Indians, Bigwigs & Benefactors of the Pikes Peak Region is a collection of biographical narratives about people who have impacted the Pikes Peak region’s history and development. The word philanthropy is described as the “love of mankind” and the women and men in Bigwigs & Benefactors of the Pikes Peak Region represent that idea. While by no means a comprehensive publication of every benefactor of our region, what we attempt to do with this volume is provide a small sampling of the generous citizens who have impacted our community.
