Ideal Applicant
A Colorado-based small or mid-sized nonprofit serving underserved children (food insecurity, youth services, schools, or community partnerships) with local visibility or an existing introduction to the foundation or its partners.
Good Fit
- • Organization is based in Colorado and serves children or food-security needs.
- • Existing relationship or introduction to foundation trustees, Mile Hi Companies, or long-standing local partners like RMHC.
- • Requests that match past purposes (general donations, school performing arts, food redistribution).
- • Capacity to manage modest annual awards (many grants are under $10K, with a few larger gifts).
Geography
Observed giving is heavily concentrated in Colorado: the latest years show three states touched but roughly 99% of dollars stayed in Colorado, indicating a local focus.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded around 10–13 distinct organizations each year (13 in 2024) and added many new recipients in the latest year, but dollars are financially concentrated (the top grantee is 65% and the top five are 91%), so institutional variety is moderate.
New Applicants
The foundation and filings explicitly state it funds only preselected organizations; although many new recipients appeared in 2024, there is no evidence of a public application route and unsolicited applicants are unlikely to enter the portfolio without introductions.
