Rose Community Foundation thrives to strengthen local communities, expand opportunities and address critical needs in Greater Denver and beyond through values-driven philanthropy across a range of issue areas including health, economic opportunity, education, Jewish life and more. The Foundation envisions a thriving region strengthened by its diversity and generosity, and it utilizes the various tools at its disposal – grantmaking, advocacy, convening, investments and philanthropic services – to advance this aspiration.

Rose Community Foundation originated from the 1995 sale of Rose Medical Center, founded by the Jewish community in the late 1940s at a time when Jewish doctors and doctors of color were denied hospital privileges elsewhere due to discrimination. Since the Foundation’s inception three decades ago, Rose Community Foundation has granted more than $450 million to nonprofit organizations and initiatives in the seven-county Greater Denver area and beyond.

The Foundation has $433 million in total assets under management, with annual grantmaking and distributions of nearly $30 million – roughly $11 million of which are the Foundation’s annual discretionary grantmaking dollars and approximately $10 million of which are granted from donor-advised funds to nonprofit organizations of their choosing around the state, country and world.

Rose Community Foundation seeks an Accountant to complete day-to-day accounting and financial reporting activities, including supporting its departments and project funds and playing a key role in the core annual processes of budgeting, audit coordination, and preparation of tax filings. The Accountant is a member of the Finance Team, which ensures the Foundation’s financial resources are responsibly managed through accounting, investments, budgeting, and risk management in support of its mission and long-term sustainability.
