Create a Named or Endowed Scholarship
A named or endowed scholarship is one of the most meaningful ways to support students at Emily Griffith Technical College. These scholarships provide targeted financial help to learners who are working to build skills, enter high-demand careers, and create stability for themselves and their families. By setting up a scholarship, you are doing more than funding tuition. You are investing in real opportunity.
Why Scholarships Matter
Many EGTC students balance work, family responsibilities, and the rising cost of living while trying to complete their programs. Even modest expenses can stand in the way of finishing school. Scholarships ease that pressure so students can stay focused, persist, and graduate.
Your support can help students:
Cover tuition, books, tools, and required program supplies
Reduce the need for loans or excessive work hours
Stay enrolled and move through their training on schedule
Enter the workforce without debt, and with strong skills and a clear path forward
Every scholarship creates a ripple effect that strengthens families, employers, and communities across Colorado.
Named Scholarships
A named scholarship allows you to support students while honoring someone special or highlighting a cause you value. You choose the name, define the purpose, and outline any criteria you want considered in the selection process. Named scholarships can be funded annually or built as multi-year commitments.
This option is ideal for donors who want flexibility while still making a clear and lasting impact on students.
Endowed Scholarships
An endowed scholarship builds support that lasts. Endowments are invested to generate annual distributions, which means the scholarship continues to help students year after year. The principal remains intact, creating a permanent funding source that grows over time and provides stable, predictable support.
Endowed scholarships are a powerful way to:
Preserve a family legacy
Support a specific program or field
Ensure long-term access to education
Create ongoing impact for generations of students
