Since the Trust was founded in 2013 by local visionary citizens, over $180,000 has been raised through local donations and events.
These events include the Harvest Celebration, the Annual Car Show, Telluride Gives, match grants and general donations. Five match grants in 2015, 2016, 2017, 2021, and 2022 were successfully met and raised $35,000 alone.
In 2023, a record total of $15,000 in community grants were awarded to the following organizations: Fresh Foundation, Lone Cone Dressage Club, Lone Cone Library, One to One Mentoring, Pinhead Institute, San Miguel Resource Center, and True North Youth Program, Norwood Cemetery, Giggling Goat Farm, Norwood Park and Recreation District, Axis Health Systems, San Miguel Basin Fair, Hoof and Paw, Norwood Nordic, Tri-County Health Network, and Prime Time. We look forward to seeing the positive impact these organizations are sure to make on the Wright’s Mesa community.
