The Open Media Foundation is dedicated to making the media accessible to everyone, especially those who are underrepresented in traditional media. Since 2004, we have provided over $500,000 in grants, scholarships and discounts to individuals and organizations.  Preference is given to grant applicants in the Denver Metro area and are generally only awarded to individuals and organizations in Colorado. 

Our grant program would not be possible without continued support from our committed donors and volunteers. If you would like to make a donation, please visit our online donation form.
