The Colorado Energy Foundation is working with a diverse cohort of nonprofit partners who, through their work, reduce the systemic barriers to equity for all Coloradans. Big Brothers Big Sisters of Colorado is pleased to be a beneficiary and grant recipient of the Colorado Energy Foundation this year as we work together to provide opportunity and support to Colorado’s youth through the power of one-to-one mentoring.
The Colorado Energy Foundation was incorporated in 2019 as a 501(c)(3) supporting organization of the Colorado Oil & Gas Association. The Colorado Energy Foundation seeks to amplify existing philanthropic efforts of the oil and gas industry in Colorado and develop new community partnerships through strategic investment. It is supported by a diverse community of companies and individuals in the broader oil and gas industry in Colorado.
Sara Reynolds, Executive Director of the Colorado Energy Foundation, shared about the impact of this year’s funding partners: “Each of the community partners selected for funding this year share a common thread – they are committed to reducing systemic barriers to equity and access for all Coloradans through their mission. From providing essential food and energy security, to supporting student achievement and developing Colorado’s workforce of the future, each of these organizations have a fundamental impact on our communities.”
Big Brothers Big Sisters of Colorado is thankful for this generous funding to support our programs and looks forward to an impactful partnership with the Colorado Energy Foundation.
