Overview

The Boettcher Foundation offers Community Connections Grants to Colorado-based nonprofit organizations, funding initiatives that foster community ties and connections. Grants range from $20,000 to $75,000. Colorado-based nonprofit organizations are eligible to apply. The Foundation does not support general operating costs, ongoing services, or projects primarily serving animals or religious purposes. This initiative aims to create transformational impact and enhance community building throughout Colorado.

NOTE: Staff will review inquiries during the acceptance windows, typically responding within six weeks of receipt, to inform organizations if they will be invited to submit a full application. We prefer that organizations only submit one application of either grant opportunity (Rural Catalyst grant OR Community Connections grant) per cycle.
Through our grantmaking, we lay the groundwork for transformational impact and community building by investing in individuals, programs, and organizations throughout Colorado.
