Quail Roost Foundation
Investing in the creation of a more just, healthy and sustainable worldUnderstanding Our Mission
Quail Roost Foundation makes grants to support programs in Taos County, New Mexico and four counties in Colorado: El Paso, Huerfano, Adams & Jefferson, and Boulder. Program areas are: Animal Welfare, Education, Emergency Relief, Justice, and Sustainability. The Foundation also maintains an Emergency & Contingency Fund, as well as funds available for the charitable discretionary giving by our board members.
Our resources are generally directed to organizations and projects for which small grants can make an impact. Most of our grants go to relatively small agencies and projects that we know or can get to know on a first-hand basis and that might not have access to larger grantors. Sometimes, particularly in the field of emergency relief, we will assist larger agencies that we personally know and that have the infrastructure to react quickly and as thoroughly as possible.
Quail Roost Foundation does not discriminate on the basis of race, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, nationality, or creed. While QRF occasionally assists religious organizations in non-proselytizing projects such as emergency relief or health clinics, the Foundation is nonsectarian, and as such, does not fund evangelical activities. We do not award grants for lobbying activities or political campaigns, nor do we award grants directly to individuals.
Please note — Quail Roost Foundation does not accept unsolicited grant applications.

Working with the Quail Roost Foundation has been one of the most positive and most rewarding associations we have ever enjoyed. While actively interested and while definitely requiring all necessary updates and documentation, Quail Roost’s lack of cumbersome and repetitious paperwork is refreshing and appreciated.
