Vision Statement
The vision of the Adolph Coors Foundation founders and trustees is to provide an avenue of opportunity for Coloradans to experience the best life possible.
With its rolling plains, majestic mountains and wide-open canyons, this special place we live in inspires us to reach new heights for the areas we are focused on affecting. But what really sets us apart is the independent spirit and generosity of our citizens. Colorado remains a land of opportunity for those who want to roll up their sleeves and work for it. And, for those who still need a helping hand, our fellow Coloradans have a long tradition of jumping in to help out. This way of life made it possible for the Coors Family to participate in the American dream for more than 100 years, and the Trustees of the Adolph Coors Foundation want to make sure this country remains the land of opportunity for others, too.

Denver Museum of Nature and Science
New for us in 2020 are Staff Development Days, and for our last one of the year, we visited the Denver Museum of Nature and Science where we enjoyed Dogs! A Science Tail. Dogs! is a wonderful fun and fact-filled exhibit sponsored by the Coors Foundation. We are all in agreement that this exhibit gets five stars, all paws-up, and a recommendation that everyone should go see it!

Cañon Literacy Center
The Adolph Coors Foundation supports youth through academic tutoring and one-to-one mentoring. Canon Literacy Center does that and more! Their motto is “those who can read can succeed” and we agree. Started in March 2009, the Center is in its 11th year, serving youth in Fremont County.

Foundation for Individual Rights in Education
The Adolph Coors Foundation believes freedom of speech is a fundamental human right. One of the Coors Foundation’s grantees, Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) also believes in defending and sustaining the individual rights of students and faculty members at America’s colleges and universities. FIRE educates students, faculty, alumni, trustees, and the public about the threats to these rights on our campuses and provides the means to preserve them.
