Description
The Western Colorado Community Foundation (WCCF) Request for Funding (RFF) is designed for nonprofits seeking general operating, project, or capital support. The RFF process is not a formal grant application but a mechanism for WCCF to learn about community needs and connect nonprofits with compatible donor funds. There are two tracks: general/project/small capital requests (under $25,000) and Capital Campaign RFF (for capital needs over $25,000). Funding supports a wide range of sectors including animal care, arts and culture, community engagement, education, environment, health, human services, suicide prevention, and youth development.
