2023 Fall Grants Awarded

In accordance with its mission, the Spanish Peaks Community Foundation (SPCF) strives to make a positive impact on those who live and/or work in Big Sky. Therefore, when SPCF evaluates grant requests, it considers, and gives preference to, applications for local organizations and projects that deliver direct community services, educational support, affordable access to outdoor resources and recreation, and cultural opportunities that enrich the Big Sky community.

This fall SPCF received 28 grant applications with a total of $500,000 requested. This was SPCF’s largest grant cycle to date, as the Board awarded $363,500 to 21 different organizations.

SPCF’s increased capacity to support the community directly reflects the generosity and compassion of the Spanish Peaks Mountain Club members and the Black Diamond Giving Program.
