About Our Grants

Community First Foundation is a nontraditional funder. We typically release at least one open competitive grant that varies in size, strategy and scope from year to year. Our collaborative approach with community partners drives the type and quantity of funding we provide.

Bright Futures

The smile on her face says it all. When kids and families are thriving, everyone benefits. When quality prenatal care and early childhood experiences are delivered in equitable ways they help develop the social, emotional, and cognitive skills all children need to be successful. The Bright Futures Roadmap Refresh grant aims to:

Increase access to early childhood learning
Improve quality of early care
Support early childhood learning and mental health workforce
Improve connection to community and services
Create policy opportunities or solutions

Food Pantry Assistance

Let’s work together to increase access to nutritious food from local producers. Inflation, limited SNAP benefits and other economic hardships have many families struggling to afford food now more than ever. The Food Pantry Assistance grant aims to:

Increase access to diverse, locally-produced, nutritious, fresh and culturally relevant food
Support Jeffco food pantries, food banks & emergency food providers
Support local food producers
