Testimonials

We would like to introduce you to Dale, a 2024 graduate and Daniels Scholar. 

Dale graduated from J.K. Mullen High School with a goal to become an orthopedic surgeon and “help underprivileged kids receive the care they need and educate them to live healthy lifestyles.” His accomplishments are numerous, including being a 4x State Wrestling Champion and earning a cumulative GPA of 4.20.

Dale continues to set the bar high and is committed to attend Princeton University to pursue a degree in chemistry. Before stepping on campus, he is taking a gap year to train at the Olympic Training Facility, with the goal of making his Olympic dream a reality.

According to Dale, “This opportunity at Princeton has been made possible through a series of steps. ACE Scholarships, schools like Mullen, and donors like you empower students like me to accomplish remarkable things.”



Mission

To advance K-12 educational freedom, with a focus on securing financial support for families so they may access the quality education of their choice.

Background Statement

What if you could solve all of America’s problems by focusing on just one?

The economy, healthcare, crime, human services, national security—these are just a few of the things keeping Americans up at night. A recent survey of K-12 parents found that EDUCATION ranks 6th on the list of our most pressing concerns. But ACE Scholarships recognizes it should be our country’s top priority, and here’s why. Education is embedded in the roots of every single problem we’re up against. And it’s the proven solution to moving forward with hope for a brighter future. Because changing education changes everything.

ACE Scholarships is one of the nation’s largest K-12 scholarship granting organizations with a 25-year history of equipping lower-income families with access to a quality education. Our alumni are proof that what we’re doing is working... and our nation needs more of it. ACE isn’t just an “organization.” It’s a passion to provide access to the best education for every kid in America. We’re supporting litigation like the case that drove school choice forward and delivered the biggest legal win in education since Brown v. Board of Education in 1954. We’re inspiring big-hearted, forward-thinking donors who make supporting the future a priority. We’re backing the sharpest policy minds, creating more ways to fund access to quality education, and we’re innovating so states can distribute more scholarships than ever before. More than anything, we’re the link that brings students, parents, schools, philanthropists, business leaders, and legislators together to manifest a shared, singular goal: Educational Freedom for All.

Since our founding in 2000, we’ve delivered more than 45,000 scholarships in Colorado, and more than 121,000 throughout the country…and we’re just getting started! Join us in equipping young people with the life skills and education that can transform their economic opportunities and make their dreams come true.
