annual Report

1

Spencer Penrose came to Colorado from his native Philadelphia in 1892. A creative and

successful mining entrepreneur, Penrose would become a prominent Colorado business and

philanthropic leader who advocated for a variety of civic and charitable causes. That spirit

would eventually lead Penrose and his wife, Julie, to leave a monumental gift to the Centennial

State: El Pomar Foundation.

The Penroses established El Pomar, named in honor of their estate in Colorado Springs, in 1937,

creating a legacy that would enhance the well-being of the people of Colorado for generations.

Their vision endures today. Inspired by the principles of integrity and involvement that defined

its founders, El Pomar continues to empower those Colorado nonprofits that strive each day

to make our communities stronger. These organizations reach out to touch and improve every

aspect of Colorado life with their work in education, human services, health, arts and culture,

and civic and community initiatives. El Pomar supports these efforts through traditional grants

and one-of-a-kind programs designed to encourage, promote and educate leaders of all ages.

This distinctive combination makes El Pomar one of the Rocky Mountain West’s most

innovative and effective philanthropic organizations.

As a catalyst for the advancement of Colorado’s communities, El Pomar has truly become a

Foundation for Colorado.

El Pomar celebrates 70 years of philanthropy in 2007. The milestone anniversary follows a

year that stands out in a long history of giving. In 2006, a Foundation that started with a total

gift from founders Spencer and Julie Penrose amounting to $21.1 million, saw its assets

exceed one-half billion dollars.

The result of this growth has been an increased ability to invest in Colorado’s greatest

resource: its people. Over the last decade the Foundation has devoted $127 million to Colorado’s

communities, representing nearly 40 percent of El Pomar’s charitable distribution since the

Foundation was established in 1937.

At the same time, El Pomar has evolved, changing in response to Colorado’s varying needs.

Influencing each change is the same philosophy of giving that guided the Penrsoses: to promote

the current and future well-being of the people of the Centennial State.

Our Regional Partnerships are one example of the Foundation’s willingness to embrace new

ideas. Committed to making El Pomar a foundation that truly meets the needs of all Coloradans,

we established the Regional Partnerships in 2003. At the core of the Partnerships are councils

made up of informed community leaders representing nine regions across Colorado that

collectively encompass those portions of the state apart from its largest cities. By the end of 2006

all of the Regional Partnership Councils were operating and supporting their neighbors.

Their effect has been significant. From 2003-2006, El Pomar made more than 1,100 grants to

organizations located in the nine regions. That figure represents more than half of the total

number of grants made by El Pomar statewide.

On the following pages you will meet just a few of the people, from places including Salida,

Greeley, Dolores, Montrose, and Leadville, who are using those grants to make a difference in

each region.

In addition, El Pomar’s commitment to prudent and responsive grantmaking was recognized in

a unique way in 2006, when the Foundation established the Anna Keesling Ackerman Fund. The

former Anna Keesling Ackerman Trust was founded by Colorado business leader Jasper D.

Ackerman in 1963 and named for his mother. With a $10,000,000 endowment and a directive to

support nonprofit organizations in the Pikes Peak area while maintaining its founder’s charitable

intent, the Fund continues to honor those purposes within the operation of El Pomar.

Through new funds, grants and programs, El Pomar welcomes the challenge of finding

innovative ways to serve as a foundation for all of Colorado. As we embark on the next chapter in

our history, we’re eager to meet and support the many faces of change in Colorado’s communities.

Spencer Penrose founded the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in 1926 and

El Pomar maintains a strong connection to this legacy today. In 2006,

El Pomar Trustees approved a $1.46 million grant to help create

a new Rocky Mountain Wilderness Exhibit.

American Council of Young Political

Leaders (ACYPL)

ACYPL brings international emerging political

leaders to Colorado twice a year where they

are given the opportunity to exchange ideas

and philosophies with leading business and

community leaders and government officials.

El Pomar organizes and manages these visits

and, in return, gains invaluably from the expe-

rience and interaction. Nearly 175 young polit-

ical leaders from 28 countries have visited

Colorado through ACYPL since 1993.

Awards for Excellence

Outstanding Colorado nonprofit organizations

and community leaders are honored by their

peers and receive more than $380,000 in

cash awards from El Pomar at an annual

Awards for Excellence presentation banquet.

The event is hosted by El Pomar Trustees and

more than 1,000 civic, community, and non-

profit leaders attend. Created in 1989, the

Awards for Excellence program has provided

$4 million in grant support to 395 nonprofit

organizations throughout Colorado. Monetary

awards are used for charitable purposes as

designated by award recipients.

Each year, nonprofit organizations are

named winners in 11 different categories from

33 finalist nonprofit organizations. One non-

profit is recognized as the outstanding winner

overall. One business is honored each year for

its commitment to the nonprofit sector.

Exceptional Colorado leaders in three award

categories are recognized for their contribu-

tions to the well-being of the people of

Colorado. A statewide selection commission of

community leaders meets in different loca-

tions across the state to determine nominees

and winners.

Student Leadership Experience (SLE)

SLE enhances and supplements leadership edu-

cation at college campuses across Colorado

that participate in Colorado Leadership Alliance

(CLA), a program of the Denver Metro Chamber

Foundation fostering leadership development at

the university level. El Pomar supports CLA

through an annual two-day symposium for CLA

students and the El Pomar Leadership Scholars

program. The Scholars program provides tuition

assistance and additional leadership skills train-

ing for select students. The two-year Scholars

curriculum is designed to expose these students

to community leaders, the nonprofit sector, and

the interaction between nonprofit, business and

government sectors. Scholars attend two group

meetings each year to learn from each other

and reinforce their on-campus studies. The goal

is to give students the skills to develop into

action-oriented community leaders themselves.

The SLE member campuses include:

University of Colorado at Boulder; University of

Colorado at Colorado Springs; University of

Colorado at Denver; Colorado State University

at Pueblo; Colorado State University at Fort

Collins; Johnson & Wales University; University

of Denver; University of Northern Colorado;

and the United States Air Force Academy.

El Pomar Fellowship

The Fellowship is a creative, diverse, and effec-

tive training ground for young leaders in

America. Recent college graduates with varied

backgrounds and interests spend two years

developing their leadership skills in a hands-on

program designed to provide them with a 360-

degree view of the nonprofit world.

At the core of the fellowship experience is

the opportunity to staff and lead El Pomar's

various Community Stewardship Programs,

providing a thorough education in the nature

of the nonprofit sector and the role of founda-

tions. More than 165 individuals have partici-

pated in the program, which began 1991.

El Pomar Youth in Community Service (EPYCS)

EPYCS introduces high school students to the

importance of leadership, service, philanthropy,

and the nonprofit sector. The program current-

ly operates in 140 high schools throughout

Colorado. Participating schools represent more

than 35 percent of all Colorado high schools

and a majority of all Colorado high school stu-

dents. While in the program, students identify

important needs within their communities and

are given a hands-on opportunity to participate

in philanthropic activities to address those

needs. Each EPYCS school, after completing a

The Foundation’s Community Stewardship Programs are grounded in the realization that the success of any endeavor is almost certainly the direct

result of the quality and effectiveness of the leaders involved. As a result, these programs identify, encourage, and support outstanding leaders of

all ages, creating philanthropic opportunities and appreciation for the importance of giving back to one’s community. The programs operate with

a tailored combination of grant dollars and additional, unique resources. Since 1989, El Pomar has invested more than $35 million in its Community

Stewardship Programs, operating in each of the state’s 64 counties.

tions of their choosing.

Since the program's inception in 1991, stu-

dents have raised $620,000. With El Pomar’s

matching contribution, the program has

awarded 12,640 grants totaling $10.5 million.

EPYCS students provide more than $1 million

in grant support statewide each year.

Emerging Leaders

The Emerging Leaders Development

Program provides ethnic minorities the

opportunity to participate in community

leadership development programs and

broad-based community activities, as well

as host several forums addressing commu-

nity issues. Through El Pomar scholarships,

individuals participate in programs offered

by noted leadership development organiza-

tions in Colorado Springs and Pueblo,

including the Center for Creative Leadership.

Since the program began in 2001, 118

individuals have participated and many gradu-

ates are now lending their skills and talents to

community and nonprofit organizations

throughout southern Colorado.

Empty Stocking Fund

The Empty Stocking Fund is an annual holiday

fundraising campaign that supports 14 Pikes

Peak-area health and human service agen-

cies. Established in 1984 by Colorado Springs'

daily newspaper, The Gazette, the Fund has

provided $7 million in grant support. The

Gazette partners with El Pomar and the Bruni

Foundation of Colorado Springs to match con-

tributions made by the community. Every dol-

lar a donor gives increases up to 63 percent

through these matches.

The Gazette and El Pomar share all

administrative expenses enabling 100 percent

of funds raised to go toward those in need.

El Pomar began its partnership with this pro-

gram in 1997 and since that time has con-

tributed $1.5 million to the Fund. The 2006

campaign was the most successful in history,

raising $980,000.

Forum for Civic Advancement

The Forum for Civic Advancement engages

individuals from across the political spectrum

who serve, or would like to serve, in elected or

appointed positions. At least six times per

year, the Forum provides an opportunity to

learn from the Forum Chairs, important fig-

ures in Colorado politics and public policy.

Additionally, the Forum periodically hosts sem-

inars with practical information about cam-

paigning and holding public office.

Forum Chairs in 2006 were: former United

States Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell;

Manitou Springs Mayor Marcy Morrison;

Presidential Scholar Tom Cronin; and former

Colorado State Senator John Andrews.

Karl E. Eitel Fund

The Karl E. Eitel Fund supports the work of

outstanding Colorado nonprofit organiza-

tions that serve at-risk youth. The Fund was

created in the name of a former El Pomar

Trustee to honor his compassion for disad-

vantaged young people. Organizations do

not apply for recognition and grants, but are

nominated and selected by a panel that

includes Eitel family members and El Pomar

Trustees and staff. This program has grant-

ed nearly $410,000 to 136 different organi-

zations engaged with Colorado’s youth.

Penrose House

Penrose House, the former home of El

Pomar founders Spencer and Julie Penrose,

now serves as an education and conference

center for the nonprofit community. The

facility is made available at no cost, except

for meals, to 501(c)(3) nonprofit organiza-

tions and government agencies to gather,

discuss issues, and find solutions to their

unique challenges.

Approximately 40,000 people represent-

ing nearly 1,000 local, state, national, and

international groups meet at Penrose House

each year.

Regional Partnerships

In 2003, El Pomar Foundation established Regional Partnerships to better understand and respond to the specific issues important to the diverse com-

munities across Colorado. To facilitate this regional approach, El Pomar developed a network of nine councils to represent nine geographical regions

outside the state’s major metropolitan areas. Civic, nonprofit, and elected leaders, joined by an El Pomar Trustee, identify and address important issues

and needs specific to their regions. Each Regional Council annually provides more than $100,000 in grant recommendations to El Pomar Trustees

based on their findings. To date, $1.7 million has been granted through these Regional Partnerships.

The Regional Councils representing the state are: Southeast, San Luis Valley, Northeast, Southwest, Northwest, High Country, North, San Juan,

and Central Peaks.

When she was a teenager, Lina Lunder

disliked school so much she dropped out

before finishing 10th grade. It wasn’t until

her husband lost his job and Lunder had to

feed her two young children that something

changed. She went to get food stamps and

was told that she had to go to work or get a

GED. She chose the latter and hasn’t

stopped learning since. She can even see

herself earning a master’s degree someday.

Lunder’s drive and a variety of financial

aid resources have given her a second

chance for a great education — all in her late

twenties. As a nursing student attending

Otero Junior College in 2006, Lunder received

In some way, her experience is helping

set off a small chain reaction. Lunder’s

brother, also a high school dropout, is

following in his sister’s footsteps by earning

his GED and attending community college,

while in his thirties.

Lunder’s story supports the Council’s

recognition that increasing access to quality

education in the region is a strategy to

improve health and promote economic growth

and stability. The Council’s commitment to

education has resulted in 80 percent of its

funding going toward educational initiatives.

Hoping to reach children before they

become dropouts, the Council developed a

program called Breakfast Buddies. Breakfast

Buddies targets elementary school students

who exhibit specific high-risk indicators and

exposes them to positive role models in their

communities. The goal is to improve student

self-esteem, promote the value of nutrition, and

reinforce the importance of staying in school

at an early age. Due to the program’s success,

the Southeast Regional Council has continued

to fund Breakfast Buddies annually.

As any native of the San Luis Valley can

attest, a shortage of natural sunlight has

never been a problem. With such plentiful

sunshine in the absence of desert-like

temperatures, the Valley is one of the

nation’s top prospects for the production

and distribution of solar energy on a large

scale. But with this potential comes many

diverse stakeholders: private industry,

concerned citizens, local government, and a

variety of nonprofit agencies.

Jim Mietz of San Luis Valley Resource

Conservation and Development understood

the potential for duplication and inefficiency

with so many parties involved and decided to

do something about it. He created a new

position within his organization: a Renewable

Energy and Energy Efficiency Coordinator

responsible for coordinating and supporting

the different groups already dedicated to

renewable energy opportunities in the San

Luis Valley. Mietz then turned to the San Luis

Valley Regional Council for help, and received

$50,000 for the funding of a year’s salary for

the Coordinator.

The San Luis Valley Council was

established in 2004 and has focused on three

primary areas of interest in addition to

renewable energy: education, health care and

environmental protection. To address the latter

issue, the Council supported the Rio Grande

Initiative, a locally based effort to strategically

protect private land and water along the

corridor. A joint venture of the Rio Grande

Headwaters Land Trust and several key

partners including Ducks Unlimited and the

Nature Conservancy, the initiative received

$16,500 for the extensive planning and

implementation process involved with

executing a project of this scope.

Robert Deal doesn’t use drugs, yet he battles

methamphetamines every day. As the

director of the Salvation Army Adult

Rehabilitation Program in Grand Junction, he

and his staff work directly with 28 men and

women who are drug dependent. The

majority of the group struggles to overcome

meth abuse. To combat the rampant problem,

Deal and his team implemented a plan

combining a rigorous work/study program

with counseling and group support. The

treatment regimen works — Grand Junction

Salvation Army has one of the highest

success rates of any methamphetamine

rehabilitation program in the country at 82

percent. As a result, the Adult Rehabilitation

Program received funding from the

Northwest Regional Council in 2005 and

2006 totaling $33,000.

Eager to do even more, the Council

recognized that although recovery programs

are an important element in the fight against

methamphetamines, education and prevention

are just as crucial. Partnering with the Mesa

County Methamphetamine Task Force and the

21st Judicial District, the Northwest Regional

Council hosted a two-day symposium that

focused on best practices, law enforcement,

and education regarding methamphetamines.

The conference assembled 70 regional

stakeholders in law, education, government,

and integral nonprofits to learn from each

other and gain a broader understanding of the

far-reaching effects of meth in their

communities.

Since the Northwest Council’s inception in

2004, it has focused on three areas of

interest: methamphetamine prevention and

recovery, leadership development of immigrant

populations, and most recently, population

growth. In 2006, the Council convened six oil

and gas companies operating in northwest

Colorado. Together, the companies funded a

study through Mesa State College to take a

closer look at overloads and deficiencies in

physical and human infrastructure as a result

of rapid population growth in the region.

Edith Gooch was born with a clouding in the

lens of her left eye, a condition known as a

congenital cataract. Now in her eighties and

legally blind, she had her first operation at

the age of six and has required treatment

from specialists throughout her lifetime.

She relies completely on the Medical

Transportation Program offered through

Dolores County Senior Services to make

regular visits to a doctor 90 miles away

from her home in Dove Creek.

Gooch (top right) is not alone in her

travels. Seniors make up almost 20 percent of

the Dolores County population. Because of

their unique medical needs and a lack of

health care specialists in Dolores County, many

of them must travel for treatment. The growing

Medical Transportation Program is helping

more and more seniors get to those crucial

appointments. In January 2006 the program

offered 19 one-way trips to five people. Twelve

months later, 17 people used the service to

make 109 trips. Due to its importance in

Dolores County, the program received a total of

$18,000 from the Southwest Regional Council

in 2005 and 2006.

Since the Council’s inception in 2004, it

has focused on at-risk youth and substance

abuse in addition to seniors. The Council took

an active stance against substance abuse by

creating its own program in 2006 with a

$75,000 grant. The Regional Substance

Abuse Prevention Program (RSAPP) is geared

toward youth and tailored to the specific

needs of the six southwest communities in

which it will be implemented — Archuleta,

Dolores, La Plata, Montezuma and San Juan

counties, and Fort Lewis College. The

program is unique because it features a

coordinated fight against substance abuse,

with RSAPP steering committee members

representing 21 different organizations.

A toothbrush and a smile are symbols of

progress in northeast Colorado, where

hundreds of children are now getting off to

the right start when it comes to health care.

Well Child Clinics that provide preventative

health care including immunization checks,

vision, developmental, hearing and, yes,

dental screenings are reaching the area’s

youngest residents, a group that had been

missing out on some very basic needs.

The clinics were the result of teamwork

encouraged by the Northeast Regional Council.

The Council’s goal was to improve the overall

health of young children in the region, increase

the coordination of health services at the

community level and develop, strengthen and

sustain a community health partnership.

As a result, six health-related organizations

collaborated and created a health network to

address pressing issues regarding children’s

medical care. The Council committed $100,000

in grants to fund the group effort in 2006.

More than 700 children, from birth to age

five, participated in the program throughout

the 10 counties comprising the region. In an

area where medical professionals can be

scarce and transportation issues can create

an obstacle to seeking care that is often

misconstrued as unnecessary, the Well Child

Clinics proved to be a crucial resource. They

were the sole source of medical care for 43

percent of the children seen and for 65

percent of the participants, the clinic visit

marked their first health screening. The Well

Child Clinics were also extremely effective:

medical intervention of some kind was

initiated for more than half of the

young patients.

two years, with a grant from the High Country Regional Council, Elliott

(above left) helped connect Leadville to the entire world.

In 2006, looking to focus on the economic development of Lake

County, the Council zeroed in on Leadville as a potential catalyst. The

city had once been a mining center, but as a bedroom community to

nearby ski resorts for the previous half century, Leadville had fallen

behind the times.

In fact, the city was literally out of touch, with dial-up serving as

the best available internet connection. The Council chose to support

the upgrade of Leadville’s information technology, with the belief it

would help bring businesses back and keep local talent at home,

instead of exporting it to the surrounding resorts. A $39,000 grant

wired a stretch of the city’s main thoroughfare, Harrison Avenue,

which now provides residents with a high-speed connection to their

neighbors and beyond.

The Council also funded the Business Incubation program at

Colorado Mountain College’s Timberline Campus, to empower the

city’s entrepreneurs to build their own small businesses. Additionally,

the Council continued its work from 2005, where community

integration for immigrants was the focus. Two grants were made to

programs of the Colorado Trust’s Supporting Immigrant and Refugee

Family Initiative: the Family Visitor Program in Glenwood Springs and

the Family and Intercultural Resource Center in Summit County.

The devastating irony faced by children

suffering from severe physical and sexual

abuse is their susceptibility to being

victimized again once they enter the legal

system. The process that is supposed to

help them gain justice can be confusing,

intimidating and incapable of meeting their

unique needs.

In northern Colorado several organizations

are working to make sure that these

vulnerable youngsters are protected from

further harm while ensuring their voices are

heard loud and clear.

In 2006, the North Regional Council

recognized the outstanding work of one such

organization, A Kid’s Place, and provided a

$15,000 grant.

A Kid’s Place houses two Weld County

programs, Court Appointed Special Advocates

(CASA) and the Child Advocacy Center (CAC).

Both organizations provide advocacy and

support for abused and neglected children.

CASA trains volunteers to assist children

through the legal system and the CAC

provides a comfortable and supportive

environment for what can be very intimidating

discussions with law enforcement

representatives and/or social workers. The

overarching goal of CASA, CAC and A Kid’s

Place is two-fold: avoid further trauma and

help children begin the process of healing as

quickly as possible.

In addition to at-risk youth, the Council

has focused its efforts on education and

substance abuse prevention and recovery.

However, in the history of the program, no

group has received more grants and more

grant dollars than Special Olympics of

Colorado. The organization devoted to

providing athletic opportunities for

children and adults with intellectual

disabilities has received more than 100

grants totaling more than $75,000. Recent

UNEARTHING AWAY TO FIGHT

HUNGERMaking an impact one farm at a time

Tony Madone has spent a career working the land as a

farmer, but for almost a decade he has hardly sold a thing.

Instead, Madone has given away nearly every ear of corn,

head of cabbage and pound of broccoli produced on his

very special farm.

Already an eager community service volunteer, Madone

created Colorado Farm to Table in 2005 to help expand his

ability to feed the state’s hungry. But before he could start

providing produce to soup kitchens, food pantries and

warehouses, he had to accomplish the nearly impossible.

Madone knew that plentiful sunlight, good irrigation and

vigilant maintenance produce the best crops. Yet, those

contributions would amount to nothing without quality soil.

And his task was to turn soil that hadn’t yielded a crop in

almost half a century into fertile ground.

What followed were countless hours of weed removal,

soaking, leveling and plowing to cultivate the land now used

by Colorado Farm to Table. The hard work paid off. In fact,

his effort was so successful that in 2006 Madone and his

volunteers grew and distributed more than 100,000 pounds

of fresh produce. The food goes to community groups near

his Salida farm and around the state dedicated to curbing

hunger in Colorado.

The Central Peaks Regional Council supported Madone’s

cause with a $1,500 merit grant. In addition, the Council

also focused its efforts on early childhood education. To that

end, the Fremont and Chaffee County Head Start Programs

and the Mountain Board of Cooperative Educational

Services received grants for $20,000 and $10,000,

respectively.

For nearly 70 percent of students at

Northside Elementary School in Montrose,

access to health care is difficult. This figure

represents the number of students at the

school who qualify for free and reduced

lunch programs, an indicator of high

economic need. For these students and their

families, help is on the way in the form of a

new school-based health clinic, scheduled to

open on-site at Northside in the fall of 2007.

Montrose County School District is

spearheading the establishment of the clinic

at Northside, one of the district’s neediest

schools. The district is concerned about the

number of families without access to primary

health care services, as children without

regular medical care are more likely to

contract illnesses that keep them out of

school and affect learning. School-based

health clinics are recognized as an effective

strategy for helping children receive health

care and can often be offered on a subsidized

basis or free of charge.

Plans for the clinic at Northside began

taking shape in 2006 after the district

received a planning grant from the state’s

leading resource for school-based health, the

Colorado Association for School-Based Health

Care, located in Denver. Momentum for the

project increased exponentially with a grant

from the San Juan Regional Council. The

Council’s original $20,000 contribution has

grown dramatically with grants from other

organizations sponsoring this school-based

health care initiative.

In addition to supporting the Northside

Elementary clinic, the first-year Council

provided $30,000 to a variety of organizations

around the region for children’s health needs,

including dental and vision care and

immunizations.

statewide grant highlights

In addition to its effort to reach out to the

entire state, El Pomar remains committed

to supporting nonprofits all along the

Front Range. In 2006, we continued to

fund some of the very same organizations

originally designated for assistance by

Spencer and Julie Penrose, along with

other nonprofits newer to the state but

consistent with the Foundation’s goal to

serve the people of Colorado.

FLYING MISSIONSOF HOPEAngel Flight West-Colorado Wing

If the situation is just right, pilot Keith Glick

likes to turn his plane’s controls over to his

passengers — if only for a moment. Glick says

he loves to see them catch the flying bug and

revel in a much-needed escape. Glick is no

regular pilot and his passengers are just as

special. Glick is a volunteer for the Colorado

Wing of Angel Flight West, an organization

that pairs qualified pilots with patients in need

of far-off medical services who are unable to

afford transportation to specialized treatment

centers.

In Colorado, 159 volunteer pilots donate

their time, planes and all costs associated

with flying each of their missions. Glick

represents many of them. The Colorado

Springs retiree is passionate about piloting his

single-engine propeller plane and says the

fact that he can do it and help someone at the

same time is doubly thrilling.

Colorado pilots flew 226 Angel Flight

missions in 2006. Approximately 70 percent

of those missions involved transporting

cancer patients to and from treatment

A BUNDLE OF JOYColorado Bright Beginnings

Babies don’t come with instruction manuals,

but all Colorado parents have access to the

next best thing: Bright Beginnings. With sev-

eral different outreach programs to educate

and support families with infants and toddlers,

Bright Beginnings offers free resources to a

huge segment of the state’s population.

Beneficiaries of the Bright Beginnings

experience don’t have to fit a certain socio-

economic profile or share a certain ethnicity.

They do have to be open to the idea that par-

enting can be challenging and it doesn’t hurt

to ask for help.

New mothers are the focus of the Warm

Welcome program. Volunteers make home

visits and arrive with a prepared outline of

information, guide books and helpful tips.

No subject, from nonstop crying to sleep

deprivation to eliciting the perfect burp, is

off-limits.

The Bright Beginnings Moving On pro-

gram centers on the language development

of babies 12-24 months. Families are taught

techniques and strategies to promote their

child’s ability to communicate through

direct interaction.

Bright Beginnings was founded in 1995

and since then has served more than 80,000

Colorado families.

SOMETHING TOSING ABOUTCentral City Opera

From its inception, Central City Opera has

been an innovator. After all, the company

that calls a small, former mining town home

routinely attracts world-class performers to

its unique location far from opera’s

traditional venues.

The preservation and growth of the

company and its performance hall was an

important objective of Julie Penrose. She was

one of Central City Opera’s first and most

involved benefactresses, responsible for the

coordination of details large and small,

including adding cushions to the theatre’s

chairs and building dressing rooms for the

performers.

In 2006, one of the smaller details that

Central City addressed was the construction

of a bigger orchestra pit. As a result, the

company was able to perform a classic

Baroque opera, with the necessary large,

period instruments, for the first time.

Monteverdi’s “The Coronation of Poppea” was

one highlight of Central City’s 2006 summer

festival. In the future, the enlarged orchestra

pit will give the company more mobility and

flexibility – allowing for not only bigger

instruments but larger orchestras, as well.

• El Pomar Foundation grants: $50,000.

BUILDING ON A LONGSTANDING FOUNDATIONColorado Springs Fine Arts Center

With a mission to make her adopted

hometown a haven for artists and a

destination for art lovers, Julie Penrose was

an ardent supporter of the Colorado Springs

Fine Arts Center. Her commitment to the

Fine Arts Center (FAC) was so strong, in

fact, she allowed her former home to be

demolished so that the original museum

could be built on the same site.

In 2006, seventy years after first

opening on Mrs. Penrose’s land, the FAC

broke ground on the biggest renovation

effort in its history. The dramatic changes

result in a much larger facility capable of

showcasing the museum’s permanent

collection, including an acclaimed

compilation of Native American and

Hispanic folk art. With the addition of more

than 48,000 square feet and nearly twice

the original exhibition space, the FAC now

has the ability to attract traveling exhibitions

from across the globe.

The centerpiece of the redesign is a new,

two-story museum featuring three Dale

Chihuly chandeliers. The museum houses

the El Pomar Wing and El Pomar Gallery.

• El Pomar Foundation grants: $3,080,000.

This figure includes $3 million of a

$5 million contribution to the FAC’s

capital campaign to fund the

reconstruction project.

Kimberly Shelton knows what it is like to

man the home front while her spouse mans

the front lines in a far-off war, yet she still

finds time to offer comfort and support to

people in the same situation.

Shelton (pictured far right) serves as the

Family Readiness Group (FRG) leader for her

husband’s deployed active-duty military police

company from Fort Carson, Colorado. Being

an FRG leader is no easy task. Shelton is the

The Well Child waiting area in the Peak Vista

Women’s Health Center offers more than

just babysitting. To the mothers who use it,

it offers a lifeline. Because they have a safe

place to leave their children at no cost, they

might be more likely to seek health care. In

the case of pregnant women, who come to

the clinic for prenatal care and education,

that means they could have healthier babies.

The Women’s Health Center is part of

Peak Vista Community Health Centers, an

organization dedicated to breaking down the

barriers that often keep people from seeking

and receiving medical attention. With 14

clinics at seven different sites across the

Pikes Peak region, Peak Vista provides an

array of health care options including

outpatient medical care, dental care and

pharmacy services.

The overwhelming majority of Peak Vista

patients live at or below the federal poverty

level. In 2006, Peak Vista provided more than

$6.7 million in charity care and saw close to

53,000 patients, almost 40 percent of whom

had no health insurance.
