in 1988 by a small group of visionaries that believed in the importance of higher education. PHEF has been a solid staple in the Pueblo community advocating for higher education.
The Foundation focuses on removing the financial as well as other barriers that might prevent all students from securing an education and gaining employment. The Foundation's purpose is to secure funds for scholarships and other educational support for low-moderate income students. Over eighty percent of the money raised by PHEF goes to providing students with support and services.
In expanded Pueblo Hispanic Education Foundation’s (PHEF) collaborations beyond higher education institutions, we are able to increase organizational efficiency and enhance organizational effectiveness. The need within the Pueblo community to assist and educate high school students on available opportunities for higher education is at the forefront of PHEF’s vision. PHEF believes that informed individual actions will lead to a more sustainable educational environment with a focus on supporting financially challenged students to realize their goals of attaining a higher education through a college, university or trade school.
Our programs at PHEF are vital to the Pueblo community today. Without it, many local high school graduates would struggle in securing financial assistance for their higher educational dreams and goals. We are energized about our programs because we have already begun to understand its impact on students, their families and the community.

PHEF’s vision completely encompasses what we do as an organization. The acronym SEEDS represents the desired progressions we have for our scholars. We believe that a PHEF scholar starts their relationship with us by first accepting our scholarship award. PHEF then expect them to seriously pursue higher education and excellence. At this point, we believe we have equal dedication to each other as PHEF is dedicated to supporting our scholars, and they become dedicated to giving back to PHEF with either their time and/or resources.
