Fiscal Sponsorship
As a service to important local projects, Eagle Valley Community Foundation serves as the administrative “home” for a variety of causes in the Eagle Valley. EVCF provides fiduciary oversight, financial management and other administrative services to help build the capacity of these charitable projects.
You may donate to all of these agencies through this website.
Adam Palmer Sustainability Fund
The Palmer Fund was first envisioned in the summer of 2021 after the tragic death of Adam Palmer, Andy Jessen, and Seth Bossung in an avalanche near Silverton, CO on February 1st, 2021. Adam was a champion for sustainability as an Eagle Town Council member and beyond. The Palmer Fund intends to honor Adam’s legacy by supporting local economic and community development through the lens of sustainability. The mission of the Palmer Fund is to partner with community leaders to achieve net-zero carbon consumption in the Town of Eagle by 2030 through philanthropy, green infrastructure, revolving loans, and grant funding.
Bindu Sky Pomeroy Memorial Fund
Eagle County Veterans Assistance Fund
Eagle County is home to thousands of military veterans, many of whom struggle to return to civilian life. Vail Veterans Program Founder Cheryl Jensen has collaborated Johnson & Johnson to establish a national program to help military veterans accept their challenges and develop a plan for success. EVCF and Vail Veterans Program identified and funded local veterans willing to participate in the national program.
As one veteran described,
“The Johnson and Johnson’s Human Performance Institute really impacted my perception of my best self in a positive way.”
Emergency Response Fund
A locally controlled relief fund, it was created to respond to urgent community needs brought on by broad-based emergencies, disasters or crises.
Mountain Recreation Foundation
Built upon the same core belief of the Recreation District that everyone deserves to be healthy and happy, the Foundation aims to privately fund capital improvements, create an ever-flowing scholarship endowment, and endow necessary resources to preserve the District’s high quality facilities.
Red Canyon High School Impact Fund
Each of the above projects do not have tax exempt status because they are a group of people working together on one specific project, without paid staff and overhead. The projects are a good match for Eagle Valley Community Foundation’s goal of working on issues that impact quality of life for all residents in the Eagle Valley.
