Dear Friends,
Thanks to so many of you who care deeply about Northwest Colorado, the Yampa Valley Community Foundation (YVCF)
was able to increase its support to many nonprofit organizations in our community in 2012.
At YVCF our primary objective is to “connect people who care with causes that matter.” Even as the economy continued
to present challenges, our organization was able to increase the dollar amount of grants thanks to our Donor Advisors,
the Steamboat Ski & Resort Corporation and an estate gift from lifetime resident Gloria Gossard. Gloria’s legacy of giving
will live on in this community because of a granting endowment fund created by our Board of Trustees in Gloria’s name.
In addition, YVCF received a gift from the Sam and Melissa Warner Foundation to establish an endowed scholarship fund.
This wonderful gift will allow the Community Foundation to award two renewable $2,500 scholarships to graduating
students from Steamboat Springs High School each year.
Lastly, we wish to extend our deepest appreciation to the Steamboat Ski & Resort Corporation for their continued
support of the Yampa Valley through the Passport Club. Proceeds from this program generously make grants to the
community and support the operations of YVCF. Our many thanks to Chris Diamond and his team at Ski Corp.
To those of you who have supported us, thank you. To those of you who want to make a difference in our community,
we invite you to join us!
Thanks to all!
John Kerst

Experts in Philanthropy
At the Community Foundation we are experts on local philanthropy
and can assist you in making strategic decisions about how to
make the most positive impact with your dollars. We partner with
individuals, organizations and businesses to promote thoughtful,
specialized charitable giving.
Our Board of Trustees is comprised of community leaders who
can identify emerging challenges in the valley and energize local
philanthropists to help build a healthy and vital community.
The Community Foundation’s staff understands the needs of the
Yampa Valley. The staff works closely with local nonprofits to improve
community life and recommend where donors can make a gift that has
the most impact. Whatever your passion, we know a worthy cause.
One of our core strengths is professional investment management of
the funds donors entrust to us. Investments are managed by Colorado
Bank and Trust, in conjunction with oversight from our investment committee.
The Community Foundation has been confirmed in compliance with The National
Standards for Community Foundations. The program requires community foundations to
document their policies for donor services, investments, grant making and administration.
National Standards has established legal, ethical, effective practices that increase donors’
comfort level when starting a fund at the Community Foundation.

Passport
Club
For the past 17 years, the Steamboat Ski & Resort Corporation (SSRC) has generously
donated 80 ski medallions each winter to the Community Foundation’s Passport Club.
Membership includes either one transferable medallion or two season ski passes to the
Steamboat Ski Area, members only locker room in Gondola Square, convenient parking, four days of skiing each at Winter Park
and Copper Mountain, discounted Friends and Family passes, First Tracks vouchers, summer gondola use and invitations to
Community Foundation events. Funds generated from the Passport Club help provide for the operations of the Community
Foundation as well as support SSRC’s contributions to the Community Grant cycle. We are unique in that we encourage
our members to actively follow and participate with the nonprofits that their membership supports so they can really see
the impact they make through membership. A Passport Club membership is a great way to simultaneously support the
community and enjoy the benefits that the Steamboat Ski Area provides.
Beth and David Foster have been Passport Club members for six years:
“We were honored this winter to participate in a STARS (Steamboat Adaptive Recreational
Sports) day which allowed us to interact with a challenged young woman and her family during
a day of skiing. The family could not say enough positive things about the STARS program. In
fact, they had returned to Steamboat versus other resorts with similar programs because they
felt that their daughter got a superior experience here in every way. We came away exhilarated
by our experience and pleased to know that Yampa Valley Community Foundation and
Steamboat Ski & Resort Corporation are supporting such a great organization.”
- Beth and David Foster

Scholarship Grants
The need for scholarships is greater than the available resources. As tuition continues
to rise, financial support from scholarships becomes even more vital. The Yampa Valley
Community Foundation has 20 active scholarship funds to help our local youth finance
their education. In 2012, the Yampa Valley Community Foundation gave $102,000 to 88
local students.
The Yampa Valley Community Foundation believes that higher education is the key to future
success for individuals and our community and honors the area’s youth for their academic
and athletic success in addition to their community involvement. We assist dozens of
students each year as they strive to attain their educational goals. Thank you to the donors
who make these awards possible. Together we can continue to provide opportunities and
share in students’ success. If you are interested in starting a Scholarship Fund or learning
more about how to apply, please call the Community Foundation at 970.879.8632, or email
erin@yvcf.org for more information.
Sam and Melissa Warner Scholarship Fund
In 2012, the California based Sam and Melissa Warner Foundation established an endowed scholarship fund at the Yampa
Valley Community Foundation with a gift of $325,000. Melissa spent her childhood in Steamboat Springs during the 1930’s
and wanted to give back to the youth of the community. Each year, two graduating students from Steamboat Springs High
School will be awarded $2,500 based on academic and extracurricular activities, as well as financial need. Applicants could
receive up to $10,000 over four years as the scholarship is renewable thanks to the generosity of the Warners.

Giving Circles
A Giving Circle is a group of people who come together, pool tax-deductible charitable
donations and make collective decisions about where to grant their money within the
community. Giving Circles offer members a chance to learn more about community issues
in an active, team approach to philanthropy. The Yampa Valley Community Foundation
provides administrative and financial services to the Giving Circle.
IMPACT 100
Over the past seven years IMPACT100 has raised over $78,000 supporting 27 different
local nonprofit organizations. IMPACT100 started when members of the Board of Trustees
of the Yampa Valley Community Foundation sought to attract a young, dynamic section
of the community to charitable giving. The concept is simple: 100 people donate $100
and collectively make an impact with a grant of $10,000. Since 2006, members attend
four social events each year, held at members’ homes or local venues. At each year’s fall
kickoff, members select four local nonprofits to learn more about in the coming year. At
the next two events, representatives of the nonprofits give a short presentation on their
programs. At the final spring event, IMPACT100 members vote, and the money is granted
to the selected organizations where the funds will make the greatest impact.

Women’s Giving Circle
Paula Cooper Black and Roberta Gill invited their friends over for lunch to introduce them to Giving
Circles, a concept with which they had both been involved in the past. Collectively their group
could make larger grants by pooling their gifts, and everyone was enthusiastic about the idea and
being involved. The Community Foundation gave the group options and strategies on how to
give and how to grant the pooled donations and established the Women’s Giving Circle Fund.
Each member donated a specified amount while the Community Foundation worked with local
organizations to identify immediate needs. Each member participated in the decision making
process via a survey with rankings, and the Fund was able to make two impactful grants. The
first was to Lift-Up to assist an elderly, disabled woman with mandatory upgrades to her electric
meter in her aging home; and the second grant was to Habitat for Humanity to replace a boiler
in a home with a new baby as part of their Brush With Kindness program. One project that
did not receive funding, purchasing a child defibrillator
for a local Day Care Center, touched one of the members
so much that the individual wrote a personal check
to ensure the request was funded. Word spread about
the success of the Giving Circle and, in summer 2013,
the group will expand with new members. The group
includes long time and part time Yampa Valley residents
from all walks of life and experiences, and they all enjoy
the opportunity to meet new people and learn about
what is happening in the community. The
group plans to keep a portion of the pooled
gifts in the Women’s Giving Circle Fund so it
will grow over time and be an endowment
fund for nonprofits in the future.

Turkey Bowl
Andy Picking and Chris Paoli organized a group of 28 local football fanatics to play in the snow on Ski Town Fields
Thanksgiving Day. The goal was to have fun and raise money for local nonprofits. Each player paid $100 to play, totaling
$2800 which was divided evenly and granted to Horizons, STARS and Hospice. Andy said it was the third year of the football
event and that the group “would now like to make a Turkey Bowl legacy” by establishing the Turkey Bowl Fund with the
Community Foundation.
As a young boy in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, Andy’s father started Thanksgiving Day Turkey Bowl with his friends in a
neighborhood backyard. Those players were in their 30’s at the time and now the tradition has extended into the next
generation. Johnstown claims it as one of the city’s longest running Thanksgiving Day traditions. Andy still has friends
in Johnstown that play in the event, just as their fathers did. While the Johnstown Turkey Bowl donated primarily to the
Easter Seals of Western Pennsylvania, Andy decided to model the concept here in Steamboat and award proceeds to local
nonprofits. Andy states,“We do so much really cool stuff in Steamboat, but with our playground of biking, skiing and so on,
we seem to have stepped away from traditional athletics. The Turkey Bowl brings the boys back to their roots. We are just a
bunch of guys having fun playing football and trying to make a few bucks to help out local people, just like our fathers did.”
If you are interested in Giving Circles or how to maximize the
impact of your charitable contributions, please give us a call
at 970.879.8632 or email info@yvcf.org. We look forward to
hearing from you!

New Donor Funds
The following are two examples of how the Community Foundation has connected people
who care with causes that matter. Both of these new Donor Advised Funds have made
immediate impact in our local community.
Challenge Fund
Sam Jones and a group of parents were concerned about the impact of declining revenues on the
elementary schools. Sam approached the Community Foundation in 2011 to establish the Steamboat
Springs Elementary School Challenge Fund. This group embarked upon an aggressive fundraising
campaign and raised over $50,000 last year and is on track to do the same this year. A committee
of parents and school representatives reviews requests submitted by teachers that will specifically
develop 21st century skills and boost academic achievement. Already, these grants are showing a
direct positive impact on students and teacher effectiveness in the classroom. A Challenge Fund movie
is in production to show and tell the many ways that Challenge Fund money is being put to work.
Twelve local businesses have also supported the effort through the Challenge Partners program.
Grants awarded from the fund in 2012 include:
sschallengefund.com
• Kelso’s Choice - a conflict resolution program for Grades K-5.
• Mindful Life Training - provides tools and strategies for teachers to use with students to manage
stress and maximize their learning.
• America’s Battle of the Books - a reading incentive program to encourage all students to read
books and have fun while competing with peers.
• Second Grade Collaboration with Doak Walker Extended Care Center - 2nd grade students will
create an art project alongside the residents of the Center, encouraging the residents to participate
as they are able.
10
Finney Fund
When local artist Jack Finney passed, his family established the Finney Legacy Fund at the Community Foundation in his memory.
Jack was known best for his lifelike bronzes of Billy Kidd in Gondola Square, Buddy Werner at the top of Storm Peak, Doak Walker
at Doak Walker Care Center and Hazie Werner at Thunderhead. The Community Foundation worked closely with the Finney family
to identify a worthy project that matched his passions of arts and youth. As a result, the Jack Finney Memorial Gallery was created
at the Steamboat Springs High School. The gift from the Finney Legacy Fund allowed the school to build a permanent place to
showcase the artistic talents of our local youth.
High School Principal Kevin Taulman is very proud of the new space and the collaboration with the Finney family. Once the structure
was initially completed, it was determined the gallery needed more area. With the help of the Finney Legacy Fund and the Finney
family, it was expanded to the size it is today. “This unique structure is now a permanent part of the building and will be there for
generations to enjoy which makes it special. Athletic trophies usually adorn the hallways of high schools, but with our students
artwork brought forward to main area; it is a unique and wonderful place.”

Making Giving Easy
Making giving easy is a goal of the Community Foundation. Donors can designate their gift
for particular programs or for unrestricted funds. Types of funds include:
Field of Interest Granting Funds
Field of Interest Funds allow you to support organizations and programs that satisfy your
personal interests. The Community Foundation has separate endowments that support
Arts and Culture, Education, Environment, Health and Human Services and Recreation.
The Yampa Valley
Community Foundation
understands that
charitable giving
is unique to each
individual donor; that is
why we offer a variety
of ways to make a
contribution. Giving
options include cash,
securities, life insurance,
retirement accounts,
real estate, charitable
remainder trusts, and
bequests. We will work
closely with you to
develop a plan that
meets your needs and
interests.
12
YVCF Trustee Operating Endowment
The endowment increases our long-term capacity to serve donors, nonprofits and the Yampa Valley.
Our goal is to continue to build an endowment to help secure our organization’s future in the valley.
Donor Advised Funds
Donor Advised Funds offer the opportunity to create an easy to establish, low cost, flexible
vehicle for charitable giving. The Community Foundation assists Donor Advisors by maintaining
fund records, researching potential grant recipients, connecting donors with local nonprofit
organizations and ensuring that distributions are made to qualified tax-exempt organizations.
We also offer Memorial Funds which operate like Donor Advised Funds, yet are named in a loved
one’s memory. As with all funds, gifts can be made to the fund by anyone at any time.
Designated Funds
Designated Funds are created to support one or more organizations specified by the Donor.
Distribution from the Fund may provide general benefits to a particular organization or a specific
program or project of the organization.
Scholarship Funds
The Community Foundation scholarship program brings together students in need and
individuals who care about education. Scholarships, which enable more students to reach their
educational goals, may be directed to a specific school or field of study.
Supporting our Nonprofit Community
Currently over 200 nonprofits serve our valley enhancing our cultural opportunities, providing
vital services and acting as stewards for our environment. The Community Foundation supports
local nonprofits in several ways.
Grants
The Community Foundation offers the Community Grant cycle for local nonprofits to request funds. Grant proposals are
reviewed by our Grants Committee comprised of Board Members and community volunteers. Grants are awarded for
innovative projects and programs which demonstrate progress towards achieving community goals.
Endowments
Nonprofits can establish an endowment fund that can help provide financial resources for the future of their organization.
Endowment funds are professionally managed and pooled for long-term investment.
Cooperating Collection
The Community Foundation houses the Cooperating Collection - a free lending and resource library and a powerful grant
database. Use of this resource assists nonprofits to obtain information and resources regarding additional funding from a wide
variety of sources.
Workshops and Seminars
YVCF hosts workshops and seminars on various subjects throughout the year to increase nonprofit management
knowledge and success.
“The YVCF helped my organization, BookTrails, frame our mission to be a good candidate
for grants and community support. I feel that YVCF is a helping hand in our community
of non-profits, always available to give advice, look over grant materials, and help make
connections between organizations. BookTrails has benefited greatly from the presence
of YVCF in our development and I’m grateful to have them as a resource for whatever I
may need.”
- Emily Krall, Director of BookTrails, an environmental reading and writing program.
“I have to say that getting to know the people
over there at YVCF has been one of the most
energizing contacts since moving here. I am really
appreciative.”
- Joan Lazarus, Executive Director, Perry Mansfield

Grant Dollars In Action
The Yampa Valley Community Foundation funded 47 grants totaling over $163,500 during
the 2012 Community Grant cycle. The success of the grant rounds is due in large part to
the generosity of Donor Advisors, the Gloria Gossard Memorial Endowment and support
from the Steamboat Ski & Resort Corporation’s Charitable and Environment Funds. In the
past 16 years the Community Foundation, with support from our donors, has granted over
$10,000,000 for community initiatives and to local nonprofit organizations.
