Gerald Gallegos, CEO and a native of Colorado, was born in Southern Colorado and attended Eagle County public schools, graduating from Battle Mountain High School, and then continuing his education at Mesa State College in Grand Junction. Gerald is especially keen on helping youth get ahead and providing educational opportunities. He is involved in many organizations and sits on the boards of El Pomar Foundation, Vail Valley Foundation, Youth Foundation, Minturn Community Fund and Roundup River Ranch.
Gerald recently joined the Board of Directors for Roundup River Ranch, which is committed to fulfilling Paul Newman’s dream of opening camps for children with serious illnesses. The camp is located just north of Dotsero and is expected to break ground later this year. “I am honored to be able to be part of this outstanding organization,” Gerald said. “I hope that I can affect these children’s lives in a positive way.”
Gerald is a founding member of The Youth Foundation, an educational organization dedicated to serving youth in need in Eagle and Lake Counties. This organization was founded in 1997 and has served thousands of economically disadvantaged children in eight programs: After School Literacy, Kindergarten Readiness, Academic Soccer, Neighborhood Net, Magic Book Mobile, Continuing education scholarships, the First Tee and Schools of the 21st Century designation from Yale University Guardian Scholars, plus other programs like Bike Give-a-ways, park building, college essay writing skills and teen budgeting.
Since 1981, the Vail Valley Foundation has been dedicated to enhancing the community through athletics, culture and education. The Foundation is responsible for providing Eagle County residents and guests with Vail International Dance Festival, AEI World Forum, American Ski Classic, Birds of Prey Race Week, Vilar Performing Arts Center and free concerts. The non-profit has also hosted the 1989 and 1999 World Alpine Ski Championships and the 1994 and 2001 World Mountain Bike Championships.
VVF also supports literacy programs and provides higher education scholarships. Through annual grants, the Foundation also supports other non-profits in the valley allowing it to have an even greater impact throughout the community.
Gerald, who grew up in Minturn, also works with the Minturn Community Fund, which is dedicated to enriching and preserving Minturn's authentic community. Through the organization's work, Minturn will be a healthy, vibrant and authentic community that meets the challenge of change while preserving its rich history and small town character.
El Pomar Foundation, founded in 1937, is one of the largest and oldest private foundations in the Rocky Mountain West. El Pomar contributes over $25 million annually through grants and community stewardship programs to support Colorado nonprofit organizations involved in health, human services, education, arts and humanities, and civic and community initiatives.
