Daniels Fund Referral Agencies
The Daniels Fund has established partnerships with more than 1,000 Referral Agencies -- from youth serving organizations, to high schools, to college prep programs -- to be responsible for nominating students. Because these agencies are rooted in the communities they serve across Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming, they offer an excellent avenue for finding deserving candidates for the Daniels Scholarship.
