Capitalizing on more than three decades in fundraising and grantmaking, the Denver Children’s Foundation (DCF) and its 100 professional members dedicate more than 1,250 hours annually to evaluate and to select the best-of-the-best charities from a pool of more than 150+ annual grant applicants.
DCF members activate their personal and professional networks to support our mission, host and staff the events that raise funds, then apply their skills and competencies to review and to select the best charities in which to invest. That’s right…DCF members act to steward the funds they raise and NO outside consultant or non-DCF member can influence the review, selection, and grantmaking process.
And, investing in DCF means investing in the next generation of philanthropic, business, and social leaders in our community. Through their diligent reviews, DCF members learn about the complex needs of our community’s most vulnerable young people as they build their philanthropic skills and expand their social conscience.
