Paige Family Foundation Opens Doors for Tomorrow’s Leaders
“I once believed that attending college was an unattainable dream. The circumstances my mom and I faced made it seem impossible to save for higher education. However, everything changed when I received this scholarship (from the Paige Family Foundation)—an opportunity that transformed my life,” said Jésus.
The Paige Family Foundation is proud to award life-changing scholarships each year to ten outstanding students, like Jésus, from the University of Colorado’s Leeds School of Business and the College of Engineering and Applied Science. These scholarships go beyond financial aid—they are an investment in the next generation of leaders, innovators, and trailblazers.
Education has the power to transform, and the Paige Family Foundation’s commitment to uplifting students serves as a catalyst for lasting change. With each scholarship awarded, we’re not just supporting an individual, but fueling progress that impacts entire communities for years to come.
A special thank you to the Leeds School of Business for recognizing the Paige Family Foundation’s dedication to the University of Colorado Boulder. Together, we are shaping a brighter future.
In May of 2024, I had the privilege of visiting St. Paul’s Senior Services in San Diego, a key partner in our mission to support older adults. The Paige Foundation contributed to renovations of one of their facilities, enhancing their ability to provide essential services like healthcare, meals, transportation, and housing to older adults of modest means. Every visit is a reminder of the magic that the dedicated staff and wonderful participants bring into this space. It is an honor to support the incredible work being done at St. Paul’s. Their impact in the community is deeply inspiring. – Sunny Justice, Executive Director and Chief Development Officer
“This project is the first step of many, but we’re committing to develop out more affordable housing in the community to make it so that seniors can stay in Bankers Hill and enjoy their senior years here,” – Michael McHale, St. Paul’s President & CEO
Scholarships help students complete their degree with a rich experience while also providing donors a chance to connect with the Colorado School of Mines. Hieu Le is a petroleum engineering student who graduated in May 2018 from the Colorado School of Mines. With financial support from the Paige Foundation, Hieu was able to fulfill his many roles as a student, husband, father, and worker while also achieving his goal of becoming a petroleum engineer!
“Without the special support and generosity from the Paige Foundation, I would not be able to achieve my goal as a Petroleum Engineer. It is my pleasure to be a family member of the Paige Foundation. Thank you so much for giving me a better life.” ~Hieu Le
“I thank you wholeheartedly once again for all your generosity and support. I will continue to keep striving for my future in the hopes to one-day make a difference in not my life, but most significantly the many lives of others.”
-Wendy McNeace, Scholarship Recipient
