The Denver Foundation Community Scholarship was established to support first-generation, economically disadvantaged college students pursuing post-secondary education. The Denver Foundation is committed to racial equity and believes strongly in the power of education to change students’ futures. That’s why we created The Denver Foundation Community Scholarship to support students of color in pursuing higher education.

Selection
Recipients will be selected based on their academics, resilience and persistence, community service, leadership, and/or work experience.
Additional information
Students will be selected as recipients and receive a one-time scholarship award of $5,000. Awards can be used for tuition, fees, books, room and board, and any additional cost of attendance expenses.
Renewal is not automatic for this award; however, previous recipients are encouraged to re-apply to the competitive process in subsequent years. All scholarships will be paid directly to the recipient’s school and must be used for the upcoming academic year. Award disbursement is contingent upon the outside scholarship policies of a recipient’s college or university.
