June 2026 Volunteer of the Month: CSPM Board

Diane Barber Stine

This June, we are thrilled to recognize the Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum Board as the Volunteer of the Month. The CSPM board is made up of passionate and dedicated community members who help guide the Museum towards its envisioned future.

One of the Board’s most significant contributions is their support of the Museum’s annual fundraiser, The Gift of History. This year, every Board member stepped forward in meaningful ways: inviting attendees, securing sponsorships, sitting at donation tables, making announcements, creating videos, personally contributing to the campaign, and much more. Their collective effort helped us surpass our ambitious goal and raise $142,625, ensuring that the Museum can continue collecting, preserving, and sharing our community’s stories.

“Our annual Gift of History fundraiser depends on the leadership and engagement of the CSPM Board, and this year their dedication exceeded every expectation. We had an ambitious fundraising goal. Their extraordinary efforts ensured we could continue preserving and sharing the stories that shape Colorado Springs.

Please join us in thanking this exceptional group for their leadership, generosity, and unwavering dedication.
