Education Scholarship: Standing Pines Foundation is committed to providing access to resources to improve higher education and professional development opportunities for students. 

A Proven Foundation: The Standing Pines Foundation Civil Engineering Scholarship amplifies founder Ed Fronapfel's long-standing commitment to educational advancement. As an adjunct professor at the University of Denver's Daniels College of Business since 2007, Ed has dedicated over 15 years to teaching construction systems and mentoring the next generation of industry professionals.His passion for education extends beyond the classroom—Ed has generously forgone his teaching salary at DU, redirecting those funds into the Fronapfel Foundation to provide scholarships for real estate and construction management program's students. This new scholarship program builds upon this proven model of giving back to support talented civil engineering students throughout Colorado.
