The mission of the Colorado Health Foundation is to improve the health of Coloradans. It operates on three cornerstones: serving Coloradans with less power, privilege, and income, especially prioritizing those of color; being informed by the community it aims to serve; and focusing all efforts towards creating health equity.
The Building and Bridging Connections funding supports strengthening social capital and community-building efforts aimed at health challenges and advancing health equity. It funds projects that build trust, dialogue, and collective action within communities, especially among people of color and marginalized groups. This includes creating connections, amplifying less-heard voices, and connecting different community segments. The focus is on communities historically left out, such as those of color, immigrant and refugee communities, and LGBTQ+ communities, among others, aligning with the Foundation’s cornerstones. Grants range from $25,000 to $90,000 for projects 12 to 24 months long.
