ANSCHUTZ FAMILY FOUNDATION To give money away is an easy matter and in any man's power But to decide to whom to give it and how much and when, and for what purpose, and how is neither in every man's power nor an easy matter ARISTOTLE Message from Sue Anschutz-Rodgers Spring 2018 Dear Friends, The Foundation's board and staff members are dedicated to its mission statement and make every effort to follow the intent of its original donors: to assist people to help themselves while nurturing and preserving their self-respect We take pride in our work and encourage nonprofit organizations to use the resources on our website and call our office for assistance During every proposal review, hard and difficult choices must be made And because of this, we continue to keep our grant sizes in the range of $5,000 to $10,000 in an effort to accommodate as many worthy organizations as possible, especially since the number of proposals we receive increase each year We have the greatest respect for the hard work and commitment of Colorado's nonprofit organizations And because of them, we are even more determined to place our grants where we feel we can make a difference We wish you the very best in the coming year Sincerely, Sue Anschutz-Rodgers Chair and President TABLE OF CONTENTS Page History Board of Trustees and Staff Information for Grant Seekers Guidelines for Submitting a Proposal .6

Foundation in 1982 as a result of many years of successful gas and oil, real estate and ranching ventures Fred B Anschutz's (1909-1993) career was characterized by uncanny and intuitive foresight and by a willingness to enter into ventures others considered too risky His first business success came through striking a rich oil field in his home state of Kansas Earnings from an oil exploration business that eventually spanned Kansas, Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming were parlayed into ranches and livestock operations across the West The family and their business headquarters moved from Wichita to Denver in the 1960's Marian P Anschutz (1910-1986) with husband, Fred, ingrained traditional American values of hard work, community involvement and love of the land in their children and grandchildren Sue Anschutz-Rodgers has continued her parents' legacy through her own business and ranching ventures and commitment to philanthropy The Foundation's assets have grown over its thirty-six year history from the original $4.5 million endowment to $55 million through investments and additional family contributions Sue served as the Foundation's first President and Executive Director and currently serves as its Chair and President Four of the founders' six grandchildren and two great grandchildren serve as trustees of the Foundation, while granddaughter Susan Rodgers Drumm served as program officer from 1994-2001 Since its inception, the Foundation has distributed 9,734 grants to nonprofit organizations for a total of $53,882,202 The Foundation's focus on supporting organizations that meet human and community needs in Colorado has remained steady throughout its existence In the early years, the Foundation funded fewer organizations with larger grants Gradually, the philosophy shifted to providing smaller grants ($2,500-$10,000) to many organizations The intent was to spread the Foundation's resources into more areas and to encourage nonprofits to develop diversified funding streams Although the primary activity of the Foundation is grant making, considerable energy has and will be directed to efforts to build the capacity of Colorado's nonprofit sector, to enhance grant making, and to work collaboratively with other funders In the early 1990's, the Foundation partnered with the Community Resource Center to orchestrate Colorado Rural Philanthropy Days, a twice-yearly event that built on an initiative of the nonprofit community in Mesa County Sue's vision in launching this event, which is still going strong today, was to increase foundation support to rural areas of the state The intent is for private and public funders, who are concentrated in the Front Range, to visit Colorado's rural communities to gain a greater understanding of the issues and challenges faced in those communities and to facilitate introductions between Metro-based funders and Colorado's rural nonprofit leaders and local elected officials Colorado Rural Philanthropy Days address two of the Foundation's goals: to increase funding to nonprofit organizations in rural Colorado and to de-mystify the grant-making process The Foundation plans to continue on its current path of embracing opportunities that enhance the nonprofit sector and focusing on organizations that strengthen families and communities and assist people to help themselves

interest in self-sufficiency, community development, and programs aimed at the economically disadvantaged, the young, the elderly, and the disabled The Foundation is also dedicated to funding efforts in rural Colorado AREAS OF INTEREST The Foundation's mission is purposely broad, allowing it to support the work of many nonprofits that focus on improving the quality of life for individuals and communities The bulk of the Foundation's grants are made in categories most directly related to the stated goals of the Foundation: improving the lives of individuals, promoting self-sufficiency, and community development TYPES OF GRANTS Recognizing that organizational infrastructure is a necessity, the Foundation welcomes requests for general operating support The Foundation also accepts requests for specific programs, and occasionally issues a challenge grant instead of an outright grant This is done when the Foundation sees both a need and an opportunity for the organization to expand its funding base GEOGRAPHIC FOCUS The Foundation aims for an even distribution of grants between organizations serving in Colorado's rural and urban communities GRANT SIZE Grants are typically in the $5,000 to $10,000 range, but generally no greater than 10% of an organization's annual budget WHAT WE DON’T FUND Generally, the foundation does not support: § Organizations with annual budgets in
