Coloradans are incredibly generous people. Take Colorado Gives Day, December 6, 2011 when an astounding $12 million was raised for local charities - in 36 hours.
This year ACE Scholarships was one of the many worthwhile non-profit choices Coloradans had on Colorado Gives Day, and we’re delighted to announce that we raised close to $80,000 during this exciting event.
Our need continues to be great as we strive to increase our scholarship program from 1,200 students to 1,500 in 2012. We’ve turned away too many children already in our eleven year history – more than 5,000 kids.
The support we received during Colorado Gives Day will allow us to empower more children with the resources they need to attend high-quality K-12 private schools.
Our program is making all the difference in the world to these kids. Thank you to all those who participated in Colorado Gives Day, and those who support our program throughout the year!
