Coworking at Creative Density has always been about the community. Yes, we are a wonderful place to work with amazing people every day. We are also blessed to have jobs, not sleep in cars, and not worry about where our next meal today or next month is going to come from. That’s why we have the tradition of adopting a family in need every Christmas through a local Denver non-profit.
Giving is at the heart of what makes a community truly special. A thoughtful gift isn’t just about the item itself—it’s about the joy, connection, and impact it creates. Whether it’s a heartfelt gesture for a friend, a token of appreciation for a colleague, or a meaningful contribution to someone in need, the best gifts remind us that we’re all in this together. That’s why at Creative Density, we believe in spreading generosity beyond our coworking space, ensuring that the holiday season is brighter for everyone.
That’s why experiences, like a lego workshops, can be just as meaningful as a wrapped present. They offer a chance to build, create, and bond, making memories that last far beyond the holiday season. Pairing gifts with shared experiences strengthens relationships and reinforces the idea that we’re all in this together. After all, a great community is built brick by brick—sometimes literally!
A Family of 5!
This year we have selected a family of five made up of two parents and three kids. The three awesome kids are aged 8, 6, and 3, so there are a variety of new toys and clothes to shop for that range from a Dinosaur Figure with a Play Mat to plush puppy toys. The parents are asking for the more practical day-to-day items that everyone needs, including some new work jeans and pullover hoodies.
For a little extra personalization, we’re considering items that are both fun and memorable, like a custom music fridge magnet—a playful and functional gift that can capture a favorite tune or lyric, adding a little cheer every time they open the fridge. Such gifts remind us of the joy in both giving and receiving, especially when they’re crafted with someone specific in mind, making this season brighter for everyone involved.
Adding a personal touch to gifts makes them even more meaningful, and a customized keychain is a perfect way to do just that. Whether it’s an engraved name, a special date, or a playful charm that reflects their interests, keychains are a small yet thoughtful keepsake that can be carried every day. The kids will love designs featuring their favorite animals or characters, while the parents can appreciate something classic and elegant, like an engraved metal keychain with their initials.
Gifting becomes even more exciting when it’s made easy and accessible, and wholesale custom keychain options offer a wonderful way to share personalized presents with multiple recipients. Whether as a part of a holiday gift basket, a stocking stuffer, or a thoughtful add-on to a larger present, customized keychains create a lasting impression. They serve as a reminder of warm holiday moments, making them a perfect choice for spreading joy not only to this special family but to friends, coworkers, and loved ones alike.
Continuing a Tradition of Community
We view coworking as a new community center so we are following a tradition that libraries and churches across the world have done, and we hang the 33 requested gifts as ornaments on the tree for you to grab. When you do, please put your name on the printed out master list to track the gifts. You’ll find the bright Christmas tree in the coworking entry.
You don’t need to be part of Creative Density Coworking to participate, in fact about a fifth of our gifts still come from past members and people that have just toured the space.
Ending with a Celebration on December 11
This one of Creative Density’s proudest traditions and it reaches beyond our walls. We are celebrating this tradition by having our holiday pot-luck and cookie exchange on December 11th, the day we need to drop off the gifts.
