Building Community Beyond Traditional Boundaries
While many Community Grants flow to established 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations, CFGV recognizes that community building happens in many forms and through diverse partnerships.
Meet Bill Burke

Support for Central Texas
There’s no question that the ties between Gunnison County and Texas are generations deep. We are grieving for everyone in our local community who has been touched by the tragedy that took place in the Texas Hill Country last week. Our hearts go out to everyone affected.
Investing In Our Valley’s Youth
Every year, Community Grants recipients submit reports that demonstrate the profound impact of donor investments in the Gunnison Valley. These reports provide valuable insights into how organizations are serving our community. Today, we share three stories from 2024 Community Grants recipients that highlight the incredible impact these organizations are having.
Match Your Giving Activities to Your Personality Type
Gunnison County is home to many big personalities and many generous community members. Learn how to match your giving style to your personality type.
How to be a Catalyst
