"I Have a Dream" receives matching challenge grant to fund more scholarships!
"I Have a Dream" Foundation of Boulder County is one of seven institutions to have received a grant from the State of Colorado's Opportunity Scholarship Initiative for college scholarships.
Thanks to a recommendation from Boulder County Commissioners, "I Have a Dream" will represent Boulder County with this matching scholarship grant of $250,000 (based on the number of low-income students in the county.) "I Have a Dream" and its pre-collegiate partners need to raise another $250,000 in matching funds to unlock this grant to begin distributing the $500,000 to Dreamers and other low-income students involved in pre-collegiate programs
this spring.
Check out the Denver Post article on the state's plan to give $7 million in scholarship funding to institutions around the state.
