One hundred community partners have been selected to receive support to help address Boulder County’s most pressing needs.

BOULDER, Colo., Aug. 18, 2025 – Community Foundation Boulder County today announced the 100 community partners selected as 2025 Community Trust grant recipients. This year’s grantees, whose applications were reviewed and recommended by community volunteers, will receive a combined total of $377,250 to help address Boulder County’s most pressing needs.

“It’s inspiring to see the focus, dedication, and commitment Boulder County’s nonprofits are bringing to their work as they continue supporting our community,” said Tatiana Hernandez, CEO of Community Foundation Boulder County. “The Community Trust grant process always reminds us of the amazing work being done to make Boulder County a better place, and the foundation is proud to support the grantees selected this year.

Community Trust is an endowed fund of Community Foundation Boulder County that offers grants to community partners addressing prevalent needs. Every year, the community foundation nurtures and activates the leadership of roughly 90 community volunteers who review grants and make funding recommendations across six areas:

• Animal care and welfare.

• Arts and culture.

• Civic engagement.

• Education.

• Environment.

• Health and human services.

“Equity is really at the heart of our grantmaking process,” said Sarah Harrison, the community foundation’s vice president of programs. “We’re grateful for the volunteers who use their diverse set of perspectives to work together to make grant recommendations to organizations driving equitable outcomes in their work.”
