The CACE RISE Scholars Program (Resources, Involvement, Success, Empowerment) empowers CU Denver students to grow academically, professionally, and as leaders while building financial confidence. By engaging with a strong network of campus resources, participants gain the skills and connections to thrive in college, succeed after graduation, and lay the foundation for generational wealth.
This annual scholarship honors CU Denver students who show outstanding dedication to advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion. Recipients help create a culture of belonging on campus and in the community through mentoring, service, advocacy, research, event planning, and leadership that drive meaningful and lasting change.
