In 1998, several Pinnacol executives discovered Kids' Chance, a nonprofit corporation developed by the Workers' Compensation Section of the State Bar of Georgia. The group provides financial scholarships for children of permanently or catastrophically injured or deceased workers to complete their education. With guidance from Kids' Chance, Pinnacol formed the Pinnacol Foundation in 2000. The Pinnacol Foundation College Scholarship Program serves the children of workers killed or seriously injured in a compensable work-related accident while working for a Colorado employer, regardless of insurance carrier. Since its inception in 2000, the Pinnacol Foundation has awarded $585,000 in scholarships to 112 students.
