Description

Bootstraps provides scholarships and interest-free loans to mountain-area graduating high school students. Our scholarships and interest-free loans are funded by local individuals, local businesses, and local civic organizations. We serve graduating high school seniors from Clear Creek, Conifer, Evergreen, and Platte Canyon High Schools, as well as students who live in the attendance areas of those schools but are receiving educations from other programs or schools (home-school, online school, private schools, etc.). Our mission is to help students with financial need pursue postsecondary education that includes college, university, community college, trades, vocational, and certification programs. 

Most awards require the recipient to have financial need as calculated by the FAFSA. ***Financial need means your college costs will exceed your EFC plus any other scholarships.***

YOUR AND YOUR PARENTS' FINANCIAL INFORMATION WILL NEVER BE SHARED WITH ANYONE OUTSIDE OF THE BOOTSTRAPS ORGANIZATION. ALL BOARD MEMBERS AND EVALUATORS SIGN A CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT BEFORE BEING GIVEN ACCESS TO APPLICANT MATERIALS.
