Pinnacol Foundation
The Pinnacol Foundation Scholarship Program helps the children of Colorado workers killed or seriously injured in a compensable work-related accident—regardless of insurance carrier—pay for a post-secondary education.
Pinnacol Assurance, Colorado’s leading provider of workers’ compensation insurance, spearheaded the creation of the foundation in 2000. Since its inception, the foundation has awarded nearly $2 million in scholarships and more than 200 students have benefited. This site features video of these students talking about how their parent's injury changed their life, and how the scholarship has helped them reach their goals.
