Accelerator Grant Application 2029-2031
Organizations which fit the below criteria applied for the Impact100 Metro Denver 2026-2028 Accelerator Grant. We selected the Colorado Immigrant Justice Fund to receive $25,000 in 2026, and to receive this same amount in 2027 and 2028, for a total of $75,000. This trust-based grant can be used for operational needs, overhead, or programmatic goals and will require minimal reporting.
Our next cycle will be 2029-2031. We plan to start working on the criteria for that grant in early 2028. We will be updating the website as we get more information about the 2029-2031 grant.
If you’re interested in volunteering to be on the committee, please email us at accelerator@impact100metrodenver.org.
