Denver Post Community Mission Statement

The mission of Denver Post Community is to improve the quality of life through support of programs that benefit children, the arts, literacy and education and the provision of basic human services. Denver Post Community accomplishes this through the implementation of various community giving programs including: Denver Post Charities and Denver Post Season To Share, funds of the McCormick Tribune Foundation, Denver Post sponsorships, and the DNA ACTS (Assisting the Community Through Service) employee volunteer program.

Art and Culture - The Arts are a vital part of the colorful and unique fabric of the Mile High City. They inspire us and enrich the lives of all they touch. Through cultural season sponsorships and Denver Post Charities grants, Denver Post Community helps agencies make art meaningful and available to many people.

Children and Youth - The children and youth of our community are our future. By investing in the youth of today, we hope to prepare our society for a better tomorrow. Through Denver Post Charities grants and event sponsorship support, Denver Post Community programs strive to ensure that our young people have every opportunity to lead healthy, happy and productive lives.

Education and Literacy - Knowledge and the ability to read are essential ingredients for building a better society. Supporting programs that provide educational opportunities and literacy instruction is a key part of our mission to better the lives of those in need. Programs serving this area are supported by Denver Post Charities grants and sponsorships.

Human Services - The care and provision of basic services to those in need is an important element to the mission of Denver Post Community. Through Denver Post Season To Share, a fund of the McCormick Tribune Foundation, money is raised and matched each year to support agencies that provide food, shelter, medical care and aid to children. This program along with other Denver Post Community programs provides help and hope to people who need it the most.
