The
Levi Scott Dunlap Memorial Foundation

The Levi Scott Dunlap Memorial Foundation was formed in Colorado as a Non-profit Corporation on December 15, 2021, and the Foundation’s tax-exempt status was approved by the IRS on February 16, 2022.  The Foundation is a 501(c)(3) Corporation, and all donations are tax-exempt for the Donor.  Foundation Directors are Dan and Fonda Dunlap, with Dan as Managing Director and primary point of contact.

 

The singular purpose of the Foundation is to “keep alive” Levi’s academic legacy and honor his generous spirit by providing scholarships and other financial assistance to select graduates of Rifle High School, which was Levi’s alma mater.  Rather than supporting graduates who are fortunate enough to obtain multiple scholarships, the Foundation seeks to assist graduates who have limited access to funding and are perhaps the first members of their family to enroll in an institute of higher learning. 

 

RHS graduates who intend to pursue Associate’s Degrees, technical certifications, skilled trade programs, Community Colleges or other such secondary education are prime candidates for assistance from the Foundation.  Levi was very aware that a 4-year academic education is simply not for everyone, and the Foundation is working to help graduates looking to pursue alternative educational paths.
