It’s simple. Our mission is to raise money for K-12 Denver Center for International Studies (DCIS) schools to increase frequency and equity for student intercultural education and integrated travel experiences. We have been helping create global citizens since 1997.
Our funding goes directly to the schools and significantly enhances DCIS’s international curriculum (K-12) in the Denver Public School district. These public schools have a diverse and valued socio-economic and multicultural environment that makes them unique and thrive. Our funding supports a holistic approach to intercultural learning and it includes student travel and exchanges (local, national, and international), educational excursions (zoos, museums, and nature), cultural immersion, and multi-lingual language education. DCIS Foundation. Our funding alters stereotypes and transforms lives.
Established in 1997, our foundation has made a big impact and ushered in needed reform: more than 5200 students (K-12) traveled, 7 languages practiced, 45 countries visited, countless intercultural and learning moments experienced, and student purpose and worth realized. Our donors have contributed $600K+, and our volunteers and board members have given over 83,000 hours of service.
In 2023, we again received the coveted GOLD TRANSPARENCY SEAL from CANDID/Guidestar - the most respected nonprofit review provider. This site is used by countless philanthropists and grant-giving organizations.
