The Community Trust is the foundation’s primary discretionary grantmaking program. Established in 2001, the program supports community partners working within Boulder County across the following sectors: education, arts and culture, environment, animal care and welfare, health & human services, and civic engagement. Since its inception, the Community Trust has awarded more than $6 million to support the needs of Boulder County.  
 
CFBC relies on a community-driven grant review process that involves more than 75 Boulder County residents volunteering 2,500 hours to review proposals from community partners and recommend grants for Community Trust.
