Finances
To merit trust, we are transparent about our research, our facts, and especially our finances. We’re beholden to no one and work solely for what the science and facts tell us is in the best interests of our home and community.
From our formation on August 25, 2022 through December 31, 2024, Aspen Fly Right received $244,996 in grants and donations.
During that period, our expenditures totaled $226,668, of which 95% paid for our public education efforts, including our website, newspaper ads, outreach consultant, and outreach activities.
Our grantors were two anonymous Colorado foundations.
The generous personal donations we received were gifted by Anne Austin-Clapper, Ned Cochran, Janet V. Coursey, Bill and Jane Dinsmoor, Matt and Ellen Dube, John B. Gilpin Fund, James Hughes & Anne D’Andrea, Charlie Hopton, Pamela Joseph, Amory and Judy Lovins, Tom & Ellen Marshall, Tom & Marilyn Melberg, Jacqueline Merrill, Jerry Murdock Jr., The Marcie and Robert Musser Advised Fund at Aspen Community Foundation, Helen Palmer, Robert Pew, Steve & Missy Prudden, Doug & Jean Rhinehart, Sandy Stay, Stephanie Soldner, Bob Watts, Bart Ziegler in honor of Professor Amory Lovins, an anonymous donor in memory of her mother, and three anonymous locally-linked donors.
All donors but one are local residents or locally rooted, and their gifts represent 96% of our income. As far as we know, no donor, Director, or officer of Aspen Fly Right has a conflict of interest.
