The Fort Collins Community Fund is an endowment supported by local residents since 1975 to provide a sustainable funding source for long-term community benefit.

A committee comprised of community members from Fort Collins (the Fort Collins Community Fund Committee) provides input to the NoCo Foundation’s Board of Trustees and staff and is responsible for recommending grants from unrestricted and field of interest funds established to support the Fort Collins community, including the Fort Collins Community Fund.

The Community Fund Committee solicits grant proposals once a year. For more information on these grant opportunities, please visit our Apply for a Grant page.

Donors with a vested interest in the ongoing well-being of Fort Collins are encouraged to consider leaving a lasting legacy through major gifts such as real estate, mineral rights, water rights, and estate gifts. Over the long term, these gifts will strengthen future generations, providing the basis for creating impact, leaving legacy.
