Grantmaking Overview

The Hupf Foundation provides grants to public charities that support education, healthcare, and community well-being. When evaluating funding requests, the Board considers several factors, including:

  • How the organization and proposal align with our funding priorities

  • The measurable impact the contribution will have on the community or population served

  • The organization’s history of success, impact, and growth

Please review our Areas of Giving to learn more about the types of programs and projects we fund.

The Hupf Foundation is currently accepting requests only from organizations that:

  1. Operate entirely in Colorado, or

  2. Run programs that directly serve Colorado communities.

There is no deadline to apply, and organizations are encouraged to submit requests at any time throughout the year.

How to Apply

Step 1: Submit a Formal Grant Request

If your organization’s mission aligns with our areas of giving, please submit a formal grant request. Your request should include:

  • Your organization’s mission and an overview of programs and services

  • The number of individuals or communities served

  • The specific amount requested and the intended use of funds

  • Relevant financial information and current funding sources

Grant guidelines can be found here.

Step 2: Board Review

The Board reviews grant requests on a weekly basis. Each request will be approved, deferred, or declined, and you will be notified of the Board’s decision or if additional information is needed.

While there is no application deadline, requests received by December 31 will be considered for that fiscal year.
