Ideal Applicant
A local public-safety or county government entity in San Miguel County, or a partner whose work directly supports the county's search-and-rescue operations.
Good Fit
- • Direct affiliation or partnership with San Miguel County or the Sheriff's Office.
- • Programs that clearly fund search-and-rescue operations, equipment, or training in San Miguel County.
- • Requests that are geographically and operationally tied to county SAR needs.
Geography
In the latest year all grant dollars were paid to recipients in Colorado, concentrated in Telluride/San Miguel County, indicating a very local geographic footprint.
Recipient Variety
The latest observed year shows only one distinct recipient (two grants to the same county recipient), so observed recipient variety for the reported year is very low; multi-year behavior is not available.
New Applicants
Based on the limited observed history and the fact that all reported 2022 dollars went to a single county recipient with no public application process posted, unfamiliar applicants appear unlikely to enter the observed giving pattern; however multi-year turnover cannot be assessed from one year of data.
