HISTORY |
Working with our predeccessor, the Colorado Springs Community Trust,
the Pikes Peak Community Foundation has been advancing community
philanthropy since 1928.
The Colorado Springs Community Trust
was founded by visionary citizens who believed that the Pikes Peak
region needed a way to build a permanent charitable endowment to
improve the quality of life in our community. The Trust is a collective
of separate trusts managed by three local banks: US Bank, Bank One and
Wells Fargo.
Since the first grant was made over 75 years ago,
The Trust has made millions of dollars of grants to non-profit
organizations in our region. The Trust's mission is to provide
responsive and creative grants to organizations that are dedicated to
making a lasting positive impact on our community.
Pikes Peak Community Foundation
was created in 1996 when the Board of Directors of The Trust realized
that the Pikes Peak region needed a strong community foundation to take
a leadership role in promoting philanthropy.
