LET'S GET STUDENTS TRAVELING! SOUNDS GOOD, RIGHT? 

"What I really discovered is that even though we all inhabit the same planet, we live in monumentally different worlds, and the way that we approach the worlds and that we build bridges between them is what defines who we are and the future of our world. Thanks to a DCIS Foundation scholarship, I was able to explore my world outside of Denver and make a meaningful contribution to our world in work and in life." Eliza, DPS Alumni

Mission

The DCIS Foundation's mission is to open the world to DPS students by advocating for and funding immersive educational travel experiences—whether close to home or across the globe.

Background Statement

DCIS Foundation was started in 1997 to help schools create global citizens and help fund student travel. The funds ensure opportunity for more students to participate. Since September 2024, the DCIS Foundation is DBA: Denver Center for Intercultural Scholars Foundation to further its reach and impact within DPS.

Over the years, our donors have helped DPS students travel to over 45 countries including Mexico, Poland, France, Cambodia, China, Italy, the Czech Republic, Israel, Nambia, Sierra Leone, Argentina, India, and all across the Unites States. The DPS language program includes Spanish, French, Italian, Mandarin Chinese, Japanese, and Lakota.

Our foundation will continue to advocate and support immersive student educational travel. Nothing can stop that vital mission. Nothing. Please join us in supporting our growing effort.
