Every second, a donation was made to help a neighbor on GoFundMe in 2021.
Most people want to help their neighbors who are struggling emotionally, but feel helpless to give practical relief.
At Sponsor a Space, we help community givers make a lasting impact in the daily lives of those drowning in emotional clutter through compassionate organizing sessions.
We believe that no one should struggle through emotional clutter alone.
For those who are struggling, the clutter is more than just stuff - it’s holding back their life.
When stuff stops being just clutter and represents pain, Sponsor A Space is here to help.
We break through emotional barriers caused by clutter.

board Members
Crystal Klausmeier
Board Chair and Treasurer
Crystal has never been asked to clean her room. Even from a young age, she has always understood the joy of an organized, clean space. Her own experiences of internal calm that comes an uncluttered external environment driven her belief that home organization work changes lives.
Since 2004, Crystal has worked in variety of social services settings - from crisis pregnancy centers, recovery group home for teen girls, a residential treatment for adolescent sex offenders, and to foster care agencies. She has a Bachelors in Adolescent Studies / Social Services, and is a Board Member of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Colorado.
Crystal is currently the Program Directory at CASA of the Pikes Peak Region. Her passion to see people live more empowered, whole lives is a driving force for Sponsor A Space's community vision.
Kayla Roebuck
Vice Chair
Kayla believes that disorganization has a big impact on mental health. She often uses her natural tendencies for organization to improve her clients' productivity.
Her work experience spans many social work-supporting avenues - from foster care, equine-assisted therapy, to supporting adults with mental and physical disabilities. She has a Bachelors in Psychology and is a Certified Life Coach. She's also volunteered at many social services organizations such as Stable Strides, Mustard Seed, and Tessa.
Kayla is currently a Targeted Case Manager for Adult Community Services. She's motivated by Sponsor A Space's accessibility to bring peace to people who could not otherwise access these services.
Katie Ferguson-Glidewell
Secretary
Katie is passionate about being of service others to foster their growth and empowerment. Her full family life has led her on her own journey of creating systems to organize their busy lives.
Her work has intersected child welfare and adolescent social work during her time as the Department of Human Services' (DHS) Liaison for the Community Mental Health Center. She provided utilization management for youth in the highest levels of care and supervised the DHS Placement Team. She has a Bachelors in American Racial & Multicultural Studies and a Masters in Social Work (MSW).
Katie is currently the Program Supervisor at Fostering Healthy Futures at Lutheran Family Services. She's committed to the Sponsor A Space mission to support our community in such a self-empowering, tangible way.
Meghan Jackson
Executive Director
Meghan believes in the potential of others. Her natural passion for reimagining spaces lead her to helping people improve their lives through peaceful, organized environments.
Her 11 years of experience in social services, with the most notable position being her role at the Department of Human Services (DHS). During that time, she developed a life skills teaching program, built community partnerships, and helped hundreds of community members to greater self-sufficiency. She has a Bachelors of Psychology and Masters in Social Work (MSW).
In 2019, she founded Joyful Spaces, a home organizing business. This career pivot allowed her to embark on her foster care journey, and she quickly realized that this practical support was very similar to her social services experience.
Sponsor A Space is the culmination of Meghan's love of giving, her support of communities, and desire to equip people with tools to develop their own peace and productivity in their daily lives.
