Funding Opportunities

Jeffco Hope Fund - Community First Foundation: As a community foundation, we have made a promise to be there for our community in times of need. We are keeping this commitment by exploring multiple efforts to respond to the impact of COVID-19 in our communities. One of those efforts is the Community First Foundation Jeffco Hope Fund [external link]. Community First Foundation seeded the fund with $1 million to strengthen and stabilize Jefferson County community organizations responding to and impacted by COVID-19. We also hope the fund can serve as a vehicle to inspire giving by our neighbors, local businesses and other community organizations who are both willing and able to contribute.
