Thank you to everyone who gives so generously to support Aims students. Because of you, more students can focus on learning, growing, and achieving their goals. Your support eases financial burdens, provides vital resources, and helps students gain the confidence they need to succeed.
Together, we're not only helping students reach their dreams but also strengthening our entire community. We're so grateful for the difference you make every day.

This year, we awarded 330 scholarships, up 78% from last year, with a total of $251,333 going directly to students — a 57% increase in scholarship funding.
These incredible gains would not be possible without the generosity of our private and organizational donors. It’s inspiring to see our community come together to invest in the growth of Northern Colorado and, most importantly, in the lives of our students and their families.
The 7th Annual ECI Golf Tournament teed off on a picture-perfect day at Highland Meadows Golf Course on September 5, 2025, and it was a true blueprint for success. Thanks to the generosity and participation of supporters like you, $40,000 was raised to support the Aims Foundation and ECI’s Construction Trades Scholarship program. These funds will help lay a strong foundation for students pursuing careers in the skilled trades, giving them the tools to build solid careers from the ground up.
A huge thank you to our hard-hat heroes—the sponsors, participants, and volunteers—who helped frame out such a successful event. With your continued partnership, we’re paving the way, raising the roof, and breaking new ground for the next generation of tradespeople.
