Scientific & Cultural Facilities District
In 1988, greater Denver metropolitan area voters created the Scientific & Cultural Facilities District (SCFD) to provide a consistent source of unrestricted funding to scientific and cultural organizations. Since then, the SCFD has funded over 300 organizations via the 0.1% retail sales and use tax (a penny on every $10). And the SCFD is a great value! In 2000, the average per capita SCFD tax collection was $14.58.

The SCFD facilitates the annual distribution of $38 million in tax funds to organizations that provide for the enlightenment and entertainment of the public through the production, preservation, exhibition, advancement or preservation of art, music, theater, dance, zoology, botany, natural history or cultural history.
