Friends of the Center
The Center for the Education and Study of the Gifted, Talented, Creative is very pleased to announce a $350,000 bequest from the estate of Eleanor Foote, a longtime advocate of gifted education in the state of Colorado. These funds now form the base of an endowment for the Center. A portion of the earnings from the endowment will be used to provide scholarships for graduate students to pursue advanced degrees, support research initiatives in gifted and talented education, and fund workshops and symposia for educators and parents of children and youth who are gifted, talented, and creative.
