The Alliance for Choice in Education (ACE) is a Denver-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2000 to provide low-income families with the power and freedom of genuine educational choice through privately funded K-12 scholarships, college-prep and education advocacy. ACE believes that every child - regardless of race, sex or family income - is of equal worth and is equally deserving of a quality education, and that providing every child with educational choice will promote an accountable and competitive education marketplace that fosters effective private and public schools. Now in its eighth year, ACE has amassed an impressive record with more than 1,800 four-year scholarships provided to needy children and a total scholarship commitment exceeding $9 million. Over $13 million has been spent in overall funding, including advocacy and support of other innovative education programs and they have established a working relationship with close to 200 partner schools.

The Boedecker Foundation supports ACE's vision is to ensure that children of Colorado's low-income families had access to quality K-12 education through scholarships.
