LIV Sotheby's International RealtyDENVER, CO – Celebrating its 18th year, the Original Denver Derby Party is an event never to be missed and this year was no different. On May 4th, almost 5,000 attendees gathered to celebrate the Derby and sip mint juleps but most importantly to benefit the Sean Ranch Lough Foundation – a foundation that grants scholarships to high-achieving, low-income, first-generation college students from the Denver area.

Ron Martinez, a LIV Sotheby’s International Realty broker and one of the founding members of the foundation, is a leader of this event and has been on the Board of Directors since the start in 2001.

“This year we were able to present three very hard-working and deserving young individuals with a full-ride to CSU,” said Martinez. “The ability to make a difference in their lives and help them with this next chapter is a huge honor and it keeps Sean Lough’s spirit alive.”Ron Martinez, LIV Sotheby’s International Realty broker, presents three full-ride scholarships to CSU.
