Gay & Lesbian Fund for Colorado $25,000 challenge
grant matches funds raised through February 24, 2010
The challenge grant awarded to the Mountain Post Historical Center
Association by the Gay & Lesbian Fund for Colorado will help to build the Mountain Post Historical Center (MPHC).
Money raised will help operations, stimulate donor base
The $25,000 challenge grant will be used to raise operating
support funds. It will also act as a catalyst by adding to the
Mountain Post Historical Center’s base of contributors so vitally
needed to build the state of the art facility.
About the Gay & Lesbian Fund for Colorado
The Gay & Lesbian Fund for Colorado was founded in 1996 as a project of the Gill
Foundation with a goal of supporting nonprofit organizations that enhance quality of life
throughout the state and promoting equality for all people regardless of sexual orientation
and gender expression.
The MPCHA Executive Team said in a joint statement: “This is a great opportunity to
enhance our fundraising efforts, the Gay & Lesbian Fund for Colorado has an admirable
track record of supporting our Soldiers”.
Dollar for Dollar match goes away next February
The MPHCA has until February 24, 2010 to match the grant. Two options qualify your
donation for the dollar for dollar match:
- Gifts from first-time donors
Donors who increase their gifts to the MPHC
Whether you are thinking of donating for the very first time to help make the MPHC
a reality, or considering an additional donation, this is a perfect time to do it as your dollars
will go twice as far.
For more information about participating in this matching grant opportunity, contact Becky Bayer-
Hughes, Executive Director at (719) 633-2867 or go to www.MountainPostHistoricalCenter.org
