Colorado Gives Day banner 2020Please support our efforts to grow Ultimate by donating on Colorado Gives Day, December 8, 2020.

Community First Foundation and FirstBank present Colorado Gives Day, an annual state-wide movement to celebrate and increase philanthropy through online giving.

$1 MILLION INCENTIVE FUND

Community First Foundation and FirstBank each contributed $500,000 to create a $1 Million Incentive Fund, one of the largest gives-day incentive funds in the country. Every nonprofit receiving a donation on Colorado Gives Day receives a portion of the fund, which increases the value of every dollar donated.

Community First Foundation, a leading foundation dedicated to fueling the power of community to drive positive change, and FirstBank, Colorado’s largest locally owned bank, have partnered to present Colorado Gives Day for the past eight years. By making fundraising simple for nonprofits and giving easy for donors, it is one the most successful events of its kind in the nation. Last year, $39.6 million was raised for Colorado nonprofits in just 24 hours.
