BOULDER, Colo. (Feb.12, 2008)—Rose Community Foundation recently granted $10,000 in support of the Child Learning Center at the University of Colorado Boulder. Funding will support the ongoing operations of the myriad programs at the center.
The Child Learning Center is an innovative educational center which supports a variety of educational programs for children with special needs and their typically developing peers. These programs include an accredited preschool, programs for both English and Spanish speaking parents of special needs children, and free screenings and assessments for children in Boulder county preschools.

Rose Community Foundation makes grants to organizations and institutions serving the seven-county Greater Denver community in the areas of aging, child and family development, education, health and Jewish life.
