Colt 45's Houston was founded in the spring of 1976 as a Western charitable organization, The Colt 45's basic goal was to serve the Houston community as a charity while still having a good time. In the recent past, community needs have changed. The Colt 45's have kept pace with these changes, especially in the area of AIDS and HIV. As a 501(c)(3) charity, we strive to serve the Houston HIV/AIDS community by the best means possible.

 Our Charitable Funds include...

The Till Thacker, III Memorial Charity Fund.

 

The Colt 45's is one of an extremely few organizations to provide valuable charitable work with absolutely no administrative costs attached. Each and every dollar donated to the various Charitable Funds goes directly to help people who need it most. The Colt 45's themselves bear the cost of any administration so that this goal of 100% charity can be maintained unequivocally.

 

We are an all-volunteer charity. Therefore, there are no paid employees, nor do we retain the services of outside consultants. Membership in the Colt 45's is open to anyone with a big heart, regardless of any "label" you might like to apply (such as age, sex, race, HIV status, income, sexual orientation, etc.) Our current membership roster includes active members, from all walks of life.

Our Office and Meeting space is graciously donated by our home bar...
