The Reisher Scholars Program is a visionary partner whose commitment to students across Colorado aligns deeply with LAEF’s mission.
Through a transformational $1 million investment, this partnership is expanding access to higher education for Latino students and strengthening the systems that support their success. Together, LAEF and the Reisher Scholars Program are building pathways that go beyond scholarships — creating sustained support that helps students persist, graduate, and lead.
Under the leadership of Dr. Landon Mascareñaz, this collaboration reflects a shared belief that opportunity must be intentionally built and sustained. Especially in this moment, investments like this are critical to ensuring that the next generation of leaders has both the resources and the community to thrive.
This partnership is not just about funding — it is about vision, trust, and a long-term commitment to shaping a more equitable future for Colorado.
