Colorado Rockies
Baseball Club Foundation
The Colorado Rockies operate two charities: the Colorado Rockies Baseball
Club Foundation and the Colorado Rockies Charity Fund, a fund of the McCormick
Foundation.
The Rockies Foundation was formed in 1991 as a public charitable organization
with emphasis toward underprivileged and at-risk youth through programs for
youth baseball, drug- and alcohol-abuse awareness and prevention, and education
and literacy.
The Rockies Charity Fund was formed in 1993 with the same targeted areas as the
Foundation. The Charity Fund is a fund partner of the Robert R. McCormick
Tribune Foundation, a national charitable trust whose philanthropic mission is
carried out through four program areas: communities, journalism, education and
citizenship.
Since their inception, the Colorado Rockies Baseball Club Foundation and the
Colorado Rockies Charity Fund have contributed more than $16 million to
community programs in the Rocky Mountain region.
The Rockies' players and staff also contribute directly to community programs
and charitable organizations by volunteering their time and participating in
more than 200 charitable events each year.
