The Colorado Health Foundation is currently accepting sabbatical applications for 2025.
Sabbatical applications are now open, and close on December 16, 2024.
Colorado nonprofit executives with at least seven years’ experience in an executive leadership role within the nonprofit sector are eligible. Up to five sabbaticals will be awarded annually. Each sabbatical must be taken within 18 months of the receipt of the award. The full eligibility criteria are on the website.
The Nonprofit Sabbatical Program aims to recognize and reward long-term and respected nonprofit leaders in Colorado and strengthen the organizations they lead by offering funds for interim leadership and staff capacity building. The program offers nonprofit executives the opportunity to step away from professional responsibilities and take time for themselves for rejuvenation.
The sabbatical award is made in the form of a grant – up to $100,000 – for charitable support to a Colorado-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. In addition to providing funding for the above sabbatical activities, the program also includes a one-month executive-in-residence at the Foundation. The executive-in-residence is designed by program grantees and Foundation leadership and staff as a mutually beneficial co-learning experience.
Eligible executives can apply via Fluxx.
