Contribute to the well-being of Logan County today, and make a difference for generations to come.

The Sterling Community Fund is an endowment created by local residents to provide a sustainable funding source for projects that make Logan County a more attractive place to live, raise a family, establish a business, and retire.

The SCF currently has over $3.5 million in assets and has made grants to projects such as Heritage Park, the city’s hiking trails, and overhead lighting at the Logan County Fairgrounds indoor arena. Over time, the Fund will have a greater impact as it grows through donations and investment returns.

Future projects will include amenities that play a key role in attracting people and industry to the area. Examples include a community center, children’s splash park, expanded hiking/ biking trails, green space, and public displays of art. Funding such projects would not be possible without charitable support. Distributions from the fund may also be used as matching funds to encourage private donations to specific projects or leveraged as matching funds for external grants received by the city or county.

The Sterling Community Fund invites all citizens in Logan County to be a part of its Legacy Society and leave estate gifts to the fund.

A committee of seven community members determine what projects are funded. Grant applications are by invitation from the committee, and grant requirements can be viewed online here. Public input is welcome; please contact the NoCo Foundation at (970) 224-3462 or info@nocofoundation.org with questions.

To donate by mail, send your check made payable to the Community Foundation of Northern Colorado to 4745 Wheaton Dr., Fort Collins, CO, 80525. Please include “SCF” in the Memo field.
