Honoring the Legacy of Your Loved Ones Through Memorial Scholarships

Losing a loved one is one of the toughest challenges in life, but you can keep their memory alive by helping others through memorial scholarships. At Colorado Women’s Education Foundation (CWEF), we offer a powerful and lasting way to honor your loved ones through charitable donations that support the education and economic self-sufficiency of Colorado women. By making a donation in the name of your loved one, you can help empower women for generations to come.


Memorial donations provide tax benefits for your generosity, and with a total donation of $1,000 or more, your loved one’s name will be recognized by listing it on CWEF’s annual reports and on our website’s “Memorial Scholarships” page. Additionally, donors can create a memorial PDF page with more information and a photo of their loved one. It's a beautiful way to create a lasting legacy that will benefit many generations to come. Donors can be listed on this page to recognize their contribution.
