One of the ways the Community Foundation of Northern Colorado supports local nonprofits is through its annual competitive grant cycle. During the 2016 grant cycle, the Community Foundation distributed $40,000 to nonprofit agencies that directly serve Berthoud residents.

Charitable organizations that serve the residents of Berthoud are now invited to submit a grant application for consideration by the Foundation’s Berthoud Community Fund Committee. The application form will be posted on the Community Foundation’s website on July 1, and the deadline for submission of applications is Friday, July 21.

Nonprofit agencies with questions about the competitive grant cycle can send an email to [email protected] or call the Community Foundation at (970) 488-1978.
