Inspired Philanthropy Throughout Colorado
As our diverse and inclusive community of donors display, philanthropists don't just exist in black and white photos and memories; philanthropists live in bold colors in our vital and vibrant community.
The definition of the word “philanthropist” is fairly simple: One who actively promotes human well-being. However, when we hear the word “philanthropist” our minds often jump to the most extreme examples; we think of black and white photos of the Vanderbilts and Rockefellers, the names that grace our buildings, theaters and streets, and the new generation of billion dollar givers.
Why do we look outside ourselves to define something we each do every day? At Community Shares, we encourage you to see yourself as an “everyday philanthropist.”

Community Shares is Colorado's Community Giving Fund. We have been broadening charitable choice in workplace giving campaigns in Colorado for 30 years. One dollar at a time, one donor at a time, we have collected more than $30 million for local investment in Colorado nonprofits.
