the endowment challenge

You want to empower your nonprofit with lasting resources by starting an endowment? Through this special grant, the Weld Community Foundation can help this become a reality.

Traditionally, to start an endowment with the Foundation the upfront investment is $20,000. But for nonprofits awarded the Endowment Challenge, you only need to initially raise $10,000. Then the awarded grant matches your investment with another $10,000. 

Your endowment will help secure your nonprofit’s great future work for decades to come. 

Grant application opens November of 2021.
