The SCFD Family of Organizations: Tier II

Tier II organizations include regional organizations offering excellence in science and culture. Tier II organizations receive 22% of SCFD funds. To qualify for Tier II, organizations must meet the following:

• Qualifying annual income of $1,748,433.53 for 2021
• Regional Impact Requirement, proving at least 15% of Colorado attendance comes from outside organization’s home county

By statute, Tier II organizations receive funding based on three factors:

1. Qualifying annual income
2. Organization’s paid attendance
3. Organization’s documented free attendance

Workshops & Support

SCFD staff provides annual review sessions to aid organizations in the process. If new to Tier II, organizations should contact SCFD staff directly.
