A private, grant-making foundation incorporated under Colorado law to benefit the children of the City and County of Pueblo.
Pueblo Day Nursery Children's Foundation’s recent grants show a clear preference for project-based support benefiting children in the City and County of Pueblo, with multiple awards repeated to the same local organizations. The foundation’s 2024 giving includes several $6,500 grants to Pueblo Family YMCA, Boys and Girls Club of Pueblo, Posada, Sangre De Cristo Arts and Conferenc, and Pueblo Symphony Associatin, alongside support for services tied to child care, children’s clothing, food assistance, and care for children and mothers. That pattern matches its stated purpose as a private, grant-making foundation under Colorado law serving children in Pueblo. The foundation works through annual grants to qualified 501(c)(3) organizations and prefers specific projects with dedicated resources. Recent grants also show that it funds both direct-service providers and community organizations, including East Side Child Care Center, Assistance League of Pueblo, Care & Share Food Bank, and Casa of Pueblo. Several grants are labeled for programs benefiting children, while others point to narrower needs such as child care, children’s education, and services to children. Across the recent list, the funding stays local to Pueblo County and centers children, early childhood, and youth services.
Early childhood and child care appear prominently in the grant mix. The foundation gave $5,000 to East Side Child Care Center for child care and another $3,525 to the same organization for programs benefiting children. It also funded Nature & Wildlife Discovery with $5,000 for children education, showing support for learning experiences tied to youth development. Basic needs are another recurring theme. Assistance League of Pueblo received $5,000 for children’s clothing, while Care & Share Food Bank received $4,500 for programs benefiting children. A Caring Pregnancy Center received $3,000 for care for children and mothers, which fits the foundation’s stated interest in maternal-child services. The arts and community enrichment also appear in the recent awards. Sangre De Cristo Arts and Conferenc received multiple grants, including $6,500 and $5,000, both for programs benefiting children. Pueblo Symphony Associatin likewise received repeated support for children-focused programming.

Typical awards are small, with a p25 of $3,000, a median of $4,500, and a p75 of $5,000. The recent grants list also shows repeated awards at the same dollar amounts, including several $5,000 and $6,500 grants, which suggests a relatively tight band of project support rather than large one-off commitments. The foundation is a private grant-making foundation and its annual programs are board-reviewed, with decisions made by the Board of Directors and awards made in February. Its grant guidelines emphasize project-based requests with dedicated resources and a demonstrable number served and cost per child. Unsolicited applications are accepted.
