Huge congratulations to Dafne and Mia on their graduation from St. Mary’s Academy last weekend!

Dafne will attend University of Denver this fall as both a Boettcher and Daniels Scholar. Mia is headed to University of Colorado Boulder as a Daniels Scholar.

The Boettcher Foundation Scholarship is one of Colorado’s most prestigious merit-based awards recognizing exceptional leadership, service, and academic achievement. The Daniels Fund Scholarship supports students who demonstrate strong character, leadership, and a commitment to giving back to their communities.

We could not be more proud of what both girls have accomplished.

From dream to destination. 🩺

One of our scholars said it best: The Challenge Foundation turned what felt like a distant dream of becoming a doctor into an actual possibility.

That's what we're here for — not just to inspire, but to equip. To give young people the resources, the confidence, and the reminder that they belong in the rooms they're reaching for.

She's not just dreaming about med school anymore. She's working toward it.

And that makes everything we do worth it. 💙
