Throughout the 11 years Peak Education has been a part of my family, I have benefited from opportunities I would never have had such as Outward Bound. I am so grateful to the Kane Family Foundation for removing the financial barrier to college. I will graduate this summer from UCCS with a degree in Engineering and look forward to working at Aeroflex Colorado Springs where I have been an intern for four years. I’ll keep an eye open for opportunities to help others as Peak Education has helped all the Scholars.
My parents stopped going to school after 8th grade because they had to work. They are so proud of me working hard to go to college.
I love these kids. It’s such a joy to hear about their passion in being the first in their family to go to college and to see how hard they are working.
The most important thing to me is being set on the right path and help in getting ready for college. Peak Education keeps me motivated and focused. I will be the first in my family to graduate from college.
Thank you to Peak Education for supporting me and my family when we first arrived in Colorado Springs. I would have been lost without the encouragement, tutoring and opportunities that Peak Education gave me. Peak Education helped prepare me for UCCS as the recipient of a full-ride scholarship.
Peak Education helps us get ready for college and keeps us on track. I like that we can ask for help when we need it.
I’ve never had so many opportunities. I even got to go to The Conservatory!
Through Peak Education I have learned new things, have met new people and have done things I never thought I would do…like going to the top of Pikes Peak and camping. I like the volunteering experiences and also our visits to the Wolf Rescue Center in Woodland Park.
