Funding pattern

What this funder pays for, at what size, and how to position adjacent work. Read from their filings, with every number checked against the record.

Where the money goes

  • Primary care and community health centers across Colorado
  • Affordable housing development, including rural and mountain towns
  • Capacity building and general operating for community-led nonprofits
  • Thriving young people: youth programs, school districts, youth organizing
  • Food access and security, especially rural and Latino communities
  • Economic opportunity, community wealth building, employee ownership

Typical grant

Median grant is $75,000, with the middle half falling between $10,000 and $166,750. The seven-figure checks go to intermediaries and fiscal sponsors (Trailhead Institute, Colorado Nonprofit Development Center), large safety-net providers like Denver Health and Clinica Family Health, and housing developers; the small checks are matching gifts and one-off community support. Multi-theme grants to the same organization recur, and many recipients appear with several tagged priorities in a single year.

Their words

Phrases from their own grant descriptions, worth speaking back to them.

  • PRIMARY CARE
  • AFFORDABLE HOUSING
  • THRIVING YOUNG PEOPLE
  • CAPACITY BUILDING
  • COMMUNITY SOLUTIONS
  • GENERAL OPERATING SUPPORT

Positioning adjacent work

  • Tie work to one named theme plus capacity building; they routinely fund grants tagged across two or three priorities.
  • Ask $150,000 to $400,000 for a defined project; reserve seven-figure asks for statewide intermediary or housing development roles.
  • Emphasize Colorado communities outside Denver metro: San Luis Valley, Western Slope, mountain resort counties all draw sizable grants.
  • Frame research as serving community-led organizations and safety-net clinics rather than as academic inquiry.

Worth knowing: This is a Colorado funder almost exclusively: 1,898 of 2,012 grants went in-state, and the handful of out-of-state recipients are national intermediaries. Money flows heavily through fiscal sponsors and community foundations, so a partnership with Trailhead Institute, Colorado Nonprofit Development Center, or a regional community foundation is often the practical route in.
