The Colorado League of Charter Schools is proud to announce that The Colorado Health Foundation (the Foundation) has designated 17 charter schools around the state to receive $10,000 donations each to support their schools and their students through COVID-19. The gifts are part of the Foundation’s effort to respond to urgent needs emerging from the COVID-19 crisis and to support health of students in districts and schools across Colorado.
The Foundation prioritized schools where students are disproportionately impacted by the pandemic.
Kia Murray, Director of Academic Services at the Colorado League of Charter Schools said, “We appreciate the thoughtful inclusion of charter schools in the Foundation’s generous giving. Charter schools, by the nature of their geographic placement in Colorado, often lack equitable access to needed resources. The Colorado Health Foundation serves as a key partner in helping the League bridge this health equity divide. Their donation is another example of their commitment to supporting students in Colorado.”
