Tiësto Invests in Minds Matter Colorado's Endowment
Our 20th Anniversary is not only a time to honor the history of our community, but also celebrate what the future will bring! The Minds Matter Colorado Endowment, created with the generous support of the Choksi family, ensures a lasting impact on serving deserving students. This endowment helps us spread the MMCO mission worldwide. It even reached world-renowned DJ, Tiësto in 2023, and we are lucky to count him as an investor in 2024! Thank you, Tiësto!
