Fort Lupton Community Foundation

Welcome!

Who We Are.

Founded in 2001, the Fort Lupton Community Foundation (FLCF) secures, manages and allocates donor gifts for charitable purposes in the Fort Lupton area, working to improve the quality of life for all residents.

As one of two affiliates of the Community Foundation Serving Greeley and Weld County, FLCF enjoys the advantages and economy of centralized management and administrative resources while the local advisory board and volunteers bring local knowledge and expertise to address the unique needs of their community.

Gifts to FLCF become part of an endowment, which includes both unrestricted and scholarship funds. Our local board has an in-depth understanding of the concerns and resources that shape our community, and are dedicated to building this permanent endowment to serve Fort Lupton’s long-term needs.

The Fort Lupton Community Foundation provides you a simple, powerful, and highly personal approach to giving. We offer a variety of giving tools to help people achieve their charitable goals.

We provide highly personalized service tailored to each individual's charitable and financial interests.
Our Donor Advised Funds help people invest in the causes they care about most.
We accept a wide variety of assets, and can facilitate even the most complex forms of giving.
We partner with professional advisors to create highly effective approaches to charitable giving.
We offer maximum tax advantages under state and federal law.
We multiply the impact of gift dollars by pooling them with other gifts and grants.
We build endowment funds that benefit the community forever and help create personal legacies.

Our Advisory Board.

Fort Lupton Community Foundation's Advisory Board is comprised of friends, neighbors, business owners, community leaders and visionaries who live in the Fort Lupton area and volunteer their time. Their combined experience provides diverse knowledge and capabilities in the Fort Lupton community.
