The Boettcher Foundation’s two priority areas are as follows:

  1. Transformational Initiatives: Approaching challenges and opportunities in innovative ways and conceptualizing problems differently takes courage and risk. The Foundation invests in organizations and initiatives that strive to innovate and create positive change in Colorado communities.

As such, the Foundation invests in initiatives or infrastructure projects that bring together, support, or deepen the connections between individuals and/or organizations.
