Pikes Peak Community Foundation
Our Roots: Meet Change Powerfully, Together
Ninety years ago, a cohort of five civically-minded community leaders established the Colorado Springs Community Trust. It may have been difficult to imagine what the community would look like today, but they knew it would evolve and that needs would change. They were also keenly aware of the power of collective giving.
Today, Pikes Peak Community Foundation (PPCF) remains guided by their original intention: to “meet the changing needs for charitable gifts with flexibility … Afford an opportunity alike to persons of wealth and of modest means to make their gifts [more effective by] distributing all of them as if an aggregate fund.”
PPCF is a collective of more than 200 citizen philanthropists and we have the same mission as those trustees nearly a century ago. We are privileged to serve our community, and our job is to continue to help citizens have the greatest impact on our community today, and 90 years from now.

PPCF HistoryColorado Springs History
Annual Report 2018
Our Charge: Build Community CapitalFor the five bankers who established the Colorado Springs Community Trust (CSCT) in 1928, General Palmer still loomed large. He was the city’s founding father, a visionary and philanthropist. Though a number of others followed - Albert Carlton, Winfield Scott Stratton, Spencer and Julie Penrose among others - our founders recognized that to care for the health of the community it would take more than one or a few charitable families; it would take a collective. They established CSCT and created an endowment that would provide charitable capital to carry through all phases of the region’s growth.
The city’s new generation of benefactors—large and small—grouped their funds in the Community Trust and made their first distribution in 1933 to tuberculosis patients at Sunny Rest Sanatorium; $455 for cod liver oil doses to “worthy patients.”
The original trustees understood that for their experiment in collective giving to endure, they needed to attend to the problems of their day and have the flexibility to address issues in the unknowable future. Today, our collective giving approaches $4 million in gifts to organizations that had yet to be conceived of in 1928.
Soon after the original endowment was formed, other notable community figures joined their cause. Alice Bemis Taylor was the first woman to join the distribution committee, and upon her death, 12 years later she left a portion of her estate to the Community Trust. In the years since, citizens from all walks of life have done the same. No matter their wealth, they have all been committed to building community capital for this region.
In the unfamiliar world to come, we have faith in what guided us through the last century - the power of a united effort.

Participants will collectively create a public art sculpture, led by Jodie Bliss
and her team.
Together, we can introduce people to new ideasIn 2018, the Fund for the Arts joined the Cultural Office of the Pikes Peak Region to produce the inaugural Peak Arts Prize which is a broad-based community contest to support local arts projects that amplify local art to new audiences.
A rich life marked by pain and inspired by hope, Edith Eliyas lived a modest life, but left a remarkable legacy in the Fund for the Arts. Born in 1923, Edith escaped from Germany after her husband’s death during World War II. She fled to Poland with her infant daughter, who fell ill. Edith took her to a hospital, which burned down that night. Believing her daughter to be among the casualties, Edith left Poland for America, and settled in Colorado Springs.
In 2005 a small Fund for the Arts was established however, in 2009, Edith left her property to Pikes Peak Community Foundation to establish a fund to support arts and culture organizations. Edith’s estate gift significantly increased the capacity of the Fund and since its founding the Fund for the Arts has made more than $540,000 in grants to arts organizations.

Giving Together funders are Dakota Foundation, Leighty Foundation,
Moniker Foundation, Petritz Fund, RNR Foundation, Strub-Heer Fund, and
Pikes Peak Community Foundation.
Together, we are preparedIn the wake of a significant disaster, successful response and recovery depends on many partnerships. Collaboration between funders and the caring public is extremely important as it holds the power to organize funding for projects that might otherwise not be possible.
Pikes Peak Community Foundation has established emergency relief funds for both El Paso and Teller Counties. As a result, during the Waldo Canyon and Black Forest Fires, $480,000 was contributed into this fund and crucial recovery projects were able to be completed. We are now proactively planning for an even more united front working with the City of Colorado Springs, Pikes Peak Region Office of Emergency Management, local first response organizations, Pikes Peak United Way, and local corporations and funders. To ensure our community is resilient, PPCF is committed to working together to support both short- and long-term needs following disaster.
Together, we can have greater impactAnnually, a group of local funders unite to research and invest in an organization that addresses a current community challenge. These funders include local family foundations, as well as donor advised funds that seek to leverage the impact of their grant making. They worked together to research needs and interview nonprofits.
In 2018, they determined they could have significant impact funding programs that serve young people aging out of the foster care system.
Giving Together awarded Fostering Hope $70,000 to expand their trauma informed care practices.

The PPCF Team
Jeff Jensen has raised his family in Colorado Springs and shares his love for the community with many of his clients. Many of those who he advises have an interest in charitable giving. Pikes Peak Community Foundation has had the opportunity to be a philanthropic planning partner with Jeff.
On why he works with PPCF: “I believe that if you live and work in Colorado Springs and are charitably minded then you have to be involved with PPCF. No one organization knows the nonprofit sector better.
“It is not easy to know where to give, and I count on PPCF to have the knowledge, and be able to research quickly based on our client’s interests. PPCF listens to our clients and makes deep connections that help our clients permanently touch people’s lives for the better.”
