Overview

Mission

The kentwood cares foundation was created with the dual mission of supporting both the internal kentwood community of employees and brokers and the external community of nonprofit organizations. Nonprofit community focus is: not for profit organizations which advance safe and affordable housing programs for Colorado residents; which promote educational programs that encourage and support equity in housing; or who provide housing related disaster relief to our Colorado communities.

What it reported doing in 2025

The foundation successfully raised funds to provide emergency assistance for individuals and organizations experiencing financial distress due to health or loss. A total of nine grants were awarded to those meeting our specific grant criteria.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filed totals do not add up and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
