    Jefferson County Stadium District Funding Application

    This program aims to provide support and resources to the youth in Jefferson County, helping them develop skills and stay on a positive path toward their future.

  4. Jefferson County received $1.107M from the sale of the Denver Broncos from the Metropolitan Football Stadium District.  This funding is to be used specifically for youth programs and activities. We are inviting community members to collaborate with us via this grant opportunity.

    The goal of providing this funding opportunity to community partners is to invest in programs, activities, and other initiatives that enhance the development, well-being, and growth of the youth. The guiding principles in this endeavor prioritize inclusivity, diversity, and accessibility. This initiative will empower young individuals by providing them with abundant opportunities for personal growth, skill enhancement, and meaningful experiences. The aim is to enrich their lives and, in turn, make a significant contribution to the overall well-being of the community.

    The funding will be allocated across four primary priority categories:

    1. Social Engagement: This category emphasizes active youth involvement in initiatives such as job skills training and community-building events, such as library-based ice cream socials, fostering a sense of community and engagement among young people.
    2. Infrastructure and  Equipment: This includes the construction of essential facilities like sensory playgrounds, alongside the acquisition of necessary equipment, enhancing the accessibility of these facilities.
    3. Program Enrichment: This category aims to enhance youth access to diverse activities through strategic measures like youth transportation services and a mobile arts and crafts initiative, ensuring a rich and engaging program offering for the youth.
    4. Scholarship Support: Funding will be directed toward enabling children's participation in a wide range of enriching activities, as well as providing daycare for young children, making sure that all children can access these opportunities.

    To achieve these objectives, collaborative efforts and thorough consideration are essential. The aspiration is to create a lasting legacy of impactful investments that nurture a thriving and supportive environment for the community's youth, ultimately contributing to the creation of a brighter and more promising future for all residents of Jefferson County.
