About Spanish Peaks Community Foundation
What started as Spanish Peaks members reaching out to assist former Spanish Peaks employees through the LIFT program in 2011 became the Spanish Peaks Community Foundation (SPCF). LIFT made a dramatic difference to 47 families affected by the bankruptcy. SPCF has allowed us to support even more individuals and 501 (c)(3) organizations here in Big Sky. Since the fall of 2014, SPCF has awarded $2,134,169 in grant funding. Supporting the local community is at the heart of everything that we do as a nonprofit foundation.
