Featured Supported Organization
Prosperity Denver Fund provides scholarship reimbursement to Denver nonprofits (not scholarships directly to students). The education nonprofits that receive funding from PDF are what we call Supported Organizations.
Latin American Education Foundation (LAEF)
The Latin American Educational Foundation (LAEF) provides access to higher education for Hispanics and Latinos in Colorado. Since 1949, our mission has never wavered. Our goal is to eliminate the barriers Hispanic and Latino students encounter in attaining their college degree. LAEF offers a one-stop center for information and guidance in navigating the college-going process. We provide a variety of services and programs to students and their families, including direct scholarship support. Every year LAEF awards more than 100 scholarships. LAEF scholars have gone on to thrive in their education and beyond, contributing to prosperous communities.
