ICI The Colorado Trust has a history of providing long-term, flexible support to grantees to maximize their ability to bring about change. Within today's challenging environment, the Board of Trustees has expressed its intent to maintain the long-term grant commitments that have been made to existing Trust initiatives. Collectively, these commitments extend through 2007 and total more than $27 million. However, even as our grantmaking increased last year—from $15.4 million in 2001 to $16.5 million in 2002—we currently have fewer resources from which to make grants because of the decline in the capital markets. Though this likely means we can provide less money for new initiatives siderit over the next year, The Trust will continue its efforts to convene people, form alliances, provide information and work together with others m the community to influence leaders and work to bring about change and improvement. One such convening that is being planned for summer 2003 is the Partners in Leadership conference. Designed for grantees and partners in Trust initiatives from across the state, this conference will offer an intensive look at how to improve leadership ability which, in turn, will help grantees sustain their organizations and strengthen the impact of their efforts. Additionally, in 2002, three noteworthy alliances occurred that served to increase the impact of The Trust's efforts. The Trust joined with the Caring for Colorado Foundation and Rose Community Foundation in a collaborative venture to create the Colorado Health Institute, an independent, impartial nonprofit organization designed to serve as the state's leading center for health data resources. In analyzing and communicating this data to key policymakers and providers, we believe the Institute has an unprecedented opportunity to address the state's health care needs. We also joined with seven other Colorado foundations in the Mental Health Funders Collaborative. This group has commissioned a study—to be completed in 2003—to provide funders with a much-needed comprehensive understanding of the mental health care needs within the state. And, we partnered with Governor Owens and Attorney General Salazar to extend the reach of our study, Ymth and F6rlence:Student,,Speak Outfit-a More Civil Society, on how to help prevent youth violence and encourage positive youth development. Together, they shared the compelling findings of this study with their fellow governors and attorneys general across the country. The work we do and the people we are privileged to work with provide many rewards. It was a tremendous honor to be recognized in 2002 for our efforts by our colleagues on National Philanthropy Day. In large part, the Outstanding Foundation award presented to The Colorado Trust is a tribute to the efforts of Trust grantees—people from grassroots and community groups to well- established larger nonprofit organizations across the state providing much needed services. Our thanks to each of our partners for their efforts to advance the health and well-being of the people of Colorado. JEAN C. JONES JOHN R.

It was incredible to be exposed to all the experiences of the other Fellows. And not only were the people inspiring, the program was intellectually stimulating. It gave me experiences that help me with the quality of the work I do. I'm able to come up with creative concepts and network in the nonprofit community, and I have the leadership skills necessary to build bridges outside my small world. For example, in my job at the Allied Jewish Federation, I'm developing innovative concepts to attract donors and change people from 'impulse philanthropy to impact philanthropy.' I'm finding people — particularly young donors — to be very receptive because they're interested in learning more about needs and being connected to their communities. I too feel connected to the community and invested in Colorado as a result of going through this program. I believe that the Fellows program is cultivating people who are the future of the nonprofit sector in Colorado."
