Welcome to The Millennium Society Online —

The Millennium Society at a glance…

• The Millennium Society is a likeminded group of (relatively) young Vail Valley professionals who banded together to socialize and philanthropize. We realize our days of skiing hard and partying harder are slowly fading, but we don’t think that means ski-town life as we know it is over. The Millennium Society is a way to keep having fun but at the same time increasingly give back to this great community.
• We raise funds through membership dues and special events, which have included house parties, ski days, swanky mountain lunches, and our signature event, an annual fall concert at the Vilar Center for the Performing Arts.
• Above all, we are about having a good time while promoting philanthropic ideals among Vail’s “generation next”

Millennium Society announces partnership with Habitat for Humanity of Eagle and Lake Counties

• The Millennium Society kicks off its fifth year by announcing a new giving partner, Habitat for Humanity of Eagle and Lake Counties.
  
  The Millennium Society is a likeminded group of Vail (and beyond) residents who banded together to socialize and philanthropize, and in a short amount of time has given thousands of dollars to local programs within local non-profit organizations such as the Steadman Hawkins Research Foundation, the Youth Foundation, the Literacy Project, the Bright Future Foundation and Small Champions. MS raises funds through membership dues and special events, which have included house parties, ski days, swanky mountain lunches, a Girls Night In of spa pampering, and its signature event, an annual fall concert.
  
  “As we continue to grow our membership, we remain committed to giving to local organizations that nurture youth and education, enhance quality of life, and promote sustainable communities,” according to Kristin Kenney Williams, who founded Millennium Society with fellow Vail resident, Jill Landman Alfond.
  
  Habitat for Humanity works in partnership with people in need to build and renovate decent, affordable housing. The Eagle & Lake County affiliate of Habitat is currently constructing homes at Fox Hollow in Edwards, Colo. Members of Millennium Society will be on site July 24 for a build day.
  
  “We are thrilled with the fundraising and awareness that Millennium Society has brought to such outstanding local non-profits,” said Alfond. “Partnering with Habitat for Humanity is a perfect representation of our membership’s values.”
