    About Jackson Foundation

    The Jackson Foundation concentrates its philanthropy locally in Pueblo, CO, with a heavy emphasis on sustaining a single regional arts institution while also supporting services for vulnerable women and children. The foundation provides substantial operating/program support to Sangre de Cristo Arts through multiple grants and makes targeted, smaller awards to community service organizations addressing safety and family needs. Its giving signals a priority for preserving cultural infrastructure in Pueblo alongside investments in social services for at-risk populations.

    About Jackson Foundation

    The Jackson Foundation’s clearest pattern is sustained support for Sangre De Cristo Arts in Pueblo, with three recent grants of $110,750 in 2023, $130,000 in 2024, and $127,300 in 2025 for art center support. That multi-year commitment sits alongside a wider local portfolio that also includes services for women and children, veterans services, mental health, child protection, and basic needs programs in Pueblo. The foundation’s giving is concentrated in one community: all 32 recent grants went to U.S. recipients in Colorado, and the recipient list shows repeated support for Pueblo-based organizations rather than a broad regional spread. Beyond the arts institution, the foundation has backed Mariposa Center for Safety for services for women and children, Mt Carmel Veterans Center for veterans services, and Pueblo Child Advocacy Center for child protection. The picture that emerges is a funder focused on sustaining core civic and human-service capacity in Pueblo while maintaining a strong cultural anchor through the arts.

    What Jackson Foundation Funds

    In arts and cultural work, The Jackson Foundation has supported both a major regional institution and smaller local arts groups. Sangre De Cristo Arts received three large awards for art center support, while Steel City Society for the Arts received $3,914 for arts promotion and Steamworks received $5,000 for art education. The foundation also backs museums and historical learning: the Southern Colorado Science Center received $10,000 for the Da Vinci Museum, and the Pueblo Historical Aircraft Society received $10,000 for an aircraft museum. On the community-services side, Pueblo Cooperative Care Center received $10,000 for clothing and food for needy residents, and Catholic Charities of Pueblo received $25,000 for community welfare. The grant list also includes $33,000 to Friendly Harbor Drop in Center for mental health and $19,100 to Nami Southeast Colorado for mental illness.

    How Jackson Foundation Gives

    Typical grants cluster around the middle of five figures: the p25 is $5,000, the median is $10,000, and the p75 is $26,250. The recent record shows both larger anchor grants and many smaller operating or program awards, with repeated support to some recipients across multiple years. Sangre De Cristo Arts appears in 2023, 2024, and 2025, and Mt Carmel Veterans Center and Pueblo Child Advocacy Center each appear in more than one year. The foundation’s profile also indicates it funds locally and does not make program-related investments. Its active grant programs accept unsolicited proposals and are framed as public-welfare and community-benefit giving for Portland and Oregon, although the recent grants shown here are all in Pueblo, Colorado.

    Giving Approach

    Concentrated, locally focused giving: a majority of funds directed to one repeat grantee (Sangre de Cristo Arts) across multiple grants, with a smaller but significant single grant to a community safety/service provider; favors larger, targeted awards to a few organizations rather than many small grants.

    Where Jackson Foundation Makes Grants

The distribution points to a single-city pattern rather than a multi-state footprint. The foundation’s own giving geography is listed as local, and the recent grants reinforce that focus.
