Register Today!

June 9-11 2010 in Mancos, Colorado.

Please join us in Mancos, Colorado, located “Between Mesa Verde and the Mountains,” for Southwest Colorado Rural Philanthropy Days – Grow Partnerships and Harvest Success, a powerful opportunity for Southwest Colorado non-profits and public agencies to interact with foundations, government agencies and other funders from the Denver and Colorado Springs area.

Registration has now gone to a waitlist for grantseekers! Want to be placed on the waitlist? Call Deanna Devereaux, RPD Coordinator, at (970) 749-2017.  There are still a half-dozen spaces available for funders. Regular priced registration began on May 1, for $145 per person. Already registered and need to modify your existing registration?

The three-day conference occurs only once every four years in Southwest Colorado, so don’t miss your opportunity to learn about the funding resources in your own region. Community representatives from the five Southwest Colorado counties – Archuleta, La Plata, Montezuma, Dolores and San Juan – have planned a conference that is unique and fun, where you will:

  • Learn new skills to build your organization’s capacity to serve your community more efficiently and effectively
  • Network with other non-profit, for-profit and public agencies in Southwest Colorado to build mutually beneficial partnerships and collaborations
  • Meet with grantmakers and funders from throughout Colorado to increase the number and dollar amount of grants for your organization and community

It’s not all work and no play during Rural Philanthropy Days. You’ll also have opportunities to enjoy the unique history and stunning environment of Southwest Colorado. We look forward to seeing you in June!

Special thanks to all of our sponsors, without whom the conference could not take place.
