My name is Josiah Gordon, and I'm thrilled to introduce the Manum Dare Scholarship Fund, an initiative close to my heart. As an alum of Thomas Jefferson High School in Denver and a student at CU Boulder, I have seen firsthand the challenges many students face when striving for higher education.

The Manum Dare Scholarship, meaning "to lend a hand" in Latin, is dedicated to supporting deserving students from Thomas Jefferson High School who face financial difficulties. Guided by my faith in God and the belief in the power of education, our goal is to provide these students with the resources they need to pursue their academic dreams and unlock their full potential.
