Ideal Applicant
A Colorado-based educational institution, a high-school senior nominated through a local Masonic lodge/school process, or a local Masonic lodge seeking benevolence support.
Good Fit
- • Organized in Colorado or serving Colorado students
- • Program is scholarship- or vocational-education-focused
- • Can be nominated or partnered with a local Masonic lodge or listed school
- • Willing to follow the foundation's published application PDFs and lodge interview process
Geography
All observed grants across the three available years were made to recipients in Colorado, indicating a narrowly in-state footprint.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 49 distinct recipients (and similar counts in prior years), including many independent colleges, universities and local lodge beneficiaries, so the actual recipient set is broad for a small private foundation.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of turnover exists (19 new recipients in the latest year and 30 returning), but the foundation's stated policy limits awards to preselected candidates; new entrants appear possible mainly via lodge or school nomination rather than entirely open public competition.
