Higher education alone is not enough. HighView is a comprehensive college and career readiness program intentionally designed to support low-income Denver students through the entire journey from high school, to college enrollment and persistence, and into high-opportunity careers that offer long-term economic mobility.
While talent and academic potential are equally distributed, opportunity and network gaps prevent many students from low-income and first-generation backgrounds from accessing promising careers and competing on equal footing with their peers.
Enter HighView, the world’s first Student Accelerator Program. We connect high-achieving students from low-income communities with top companies in their local areas, offering them a higher view into their potential futures.
Beyond providing firsthand exposure to lucrative fields like business and tech, our partners immerse students in professional environments where they develop soft skills, build social capital, and forge valuable connections. Through this sustained engagement, students gain confidence in their ability to thrive in these industries. Together with our Partner companies, we’re democratizing access to high-growth careers and shaping the next generation of exceptional thinkers and creators.
Getting into college isn’t enough.
This “last mile” between college and career is where the opportunity gap widens into an opportunity chasm. Without targeted intervention, even the most capable students can remain locked out of high-opportunity industries—not because of a lack of talent, but because of a lack of access.
