The Collaborative Impact Fund of Denver (CIFD) is an independent, nonprofit organization dedicated to addressing Denver's social issues by facilitating public-private partnerships and supporting nonprofit-led community projects.
To identify and address unmet nonprofit and public needs through supporting projects by working collectively with partners in the City and County of Denver.
The success of the Collaborative Impact Fund of Denver is derived from an engaged, passionate, and hard-working board of directors, nonprofit partners, supporters, and an eager staff. Together, our work is steered by these essential values:
In 2016, the Fundraising Governance Committee (Mayor's Office, City Attorney, Office of Strategic Partnerships, Parks & Recreation, Marketing, Department of Public Health & Environment, and the Office of Sustainability) convened to address challenges concerning the City and County of Denver's lack of coordination and infrastructure for handling donations and fundraising. Out of these conversations, the Collaborative Impact Fund of Denver was created.
