Your support on Colorado Gives Day is crucial; a $5 donation can transform into $428 in scholarships, and $100 can provide a teacher with a classroom full of essential school supplies. An investment of any amount will directly impact our students who represent over 130 countries and speak over 160 languages!

Your support helps to fund programs that drive innovation and excellence for the students of Aurora Public Schools, such as the College and Career Centers, career connected learning opportunities and pathways, the Educator Emporium, our Innovation Grants program, and student scholarships.

  • Our Work-Based Learning and College & Career Readiness programs connect students with real-world experiences, internships, and industry mentors that prepare them for success in college, careers, and life.
  • The Educator Emporium provides teachers with free, high-quality classroom supplies, supporting engaging learning spaces and easing the financial burden teachers often shoulder for their classrooms.
  • Through Innovation Grants, we empower educators to bring bold, creative ideas to life that enhance learning and spark curiosity.
  • Through our Scholarship Program, we open doors for graduating seniors to pursue higher education and career goals they once thought were out of reach.

Your Colorado Gives Day donation will help us continue to enrich opportunities for Aurora Public Schools students and support their journey toward a bright future. Together, we can make a lasting impact on the lives of our students and the future of our community.

Thank you for your generosity and for being a part of our relentless commitment to fostering growth and success for every APS student!
