The goal of Rose Community Foundation’s grantmaking is to affect lasting systemic change in the seven-county Greater Denver community. Through our five program areas, we invest in nonprofit organizations and institutions working toward strategic and innovative solutions to enduring problems and emerging issues.

Donors with funds housed at Rose Community Foundation also make grants in Denver and across the world in many focus areas.

Since our founding in 1995 Rose Community Foundation has granted more than $255 million (as of June 1, 2017) to effective nonprofit organizations and institutions serving the seven-county Greater Denver community, primarily in our five program areas.
