Mission
The Rico Center is a nonprofit, community foundation committed to preserving
and enriching the quality of life of the residents, visitors and workforce of
Rico, Colorado. To this end, The Rico Center awards grants to local non-profit
organizations, governmental entities and individuals involved in community development
and/or community based efforts.
Grant Cycle
The Rico Center grants are awarded once a year, for which the 2006 application
deadline is October 1. Out of cycle grants may be awarded at the discretion
of the Board of Directors.
Board of Directors
The Rico Center’s Board of Directors is made up of 3 to 5 members who
meet regularly to oversee all business of The Rico Center. The Rico Center’s
funds are currently held in an advisory fund of the Telluride Foundation, which
manages and separately accounts for all revenues received by or on behalf of
the Rico Center. The Board of Directors of The Rico Center direct all grant
determinations for the advisory fund and use of all such funds is strictly limited
to the Rico area.
