2020 completed projects
gIVING TOGETHER - $10,000A fund situated at the Pikes Peak Community Foundation (PPCF) that provides a space for co-funding amongst foundations or donor advised funds. In 2020, we worked alongside six local funders to provide a $70,000 grant to Resiliency Through Innovation – a newly positioned fund at PPCF that works alongside nonprofits in mid-to-long-term recovery from the pandemic. Qualifying nonprofits receive a line of credit or a grant to support critical and/or technical needs. Nonprofits selected receive a financial mentorship team to further strengthen their organization.

BUILDING HEALTHY COMMUNITIES Collaborative - $5,000Our Building Healthy Communities Collaborative works to promote healthy lifestyles by providing produce pods to rural, food insecure communities in Colorado. In 2020, we worked with Flying Pig Farm in Manitou Springs to bring gardening home to students and families in the Manitou Springs School District. A twist on our normal program, the at-home gardening provided curriculum through an online platform to combat concerns from gathering on site at the Farm. Six student-led gardens were installed, planted, and harvested.
