The Boettcher Foundation

The Boettcher Foundation believes in the promise of Colorado and the potential of Coloradans. We invest in people, programs and organizations across the state to create a foundation for community building, and transformational impact.

What We Do

For 86 years, the Boettcher Foundation has been committed to the promise of Colorado. We continue this work by investing in transformational initiatives and community infrastructure through our grant making.

Developing the leaders and community champions of tomorrow starts today. We invest in Colorado’s next generation of leaders by bringing new voices to the table, addressing systemic shortages, and keeping the best minds in Colorado. Our Fellowship Program and Colorado Leadership Collaborative elevates individual leaders and organizations to amplify their community impact.

We need our most dynamic thinkers, doers, and difference makers to stay in Colorado so they can positively impact communities across our state. The Boettcher Foundation Scholarship supports Colorado’s high-potential graduating seniors by providing them with a comprehensive scholarship program to attend a Colorado college or university.

Initiatives

For more than 85 years, the Boettcher Foundation has been committed to the promise of Colorado. We continue this work through a grant strategy that emphasizes our investment in transformational initiatives and community infrastructure.

Rural Catalyst Grants

The intent of the Rural Catalyst Grant Program is to strengthen the internal capacity of organizations to achieve their goals related to the topics covered in the Foundation’s Rural Leadership Collaborative meetings.

Community Connections Grants

Supporting connections that create a sum greater than their parts is vital to the health of communities in our state. As such, we invest in initiatives or infrastructure projects that are bringing people together or deepening the connections between individuals and/or organizations.
