About Us

The Ashley and Rusty Holzer Family Foundation

Ashley and Rusty Holzer are staunchly dedicated to education and culture, as well as health and athleticism. Rusty Holzer attended Harvard University, and considers education a core value. The Holzers have made generous donations to the Baby Jane Holzer Visiting Artist in Film Award, named for Rusty’s mother. Both Ashley and Rusty (Charles Rustin Holzer) are accomplished equestrians; Rusty competed in the 1992 Olympic Games and Ashley competed in the Olympic Games in 1988, when she was awarded the bronze medal in team dressage, 2004, 2008 and 2002, as well as many other competitions. As such, the couple enthusiastically support fitness, and created the Ashley and Rusty Holzer Horse Whisperer Grants for the Colorado Therapeutic Riding Center. Ashley and Rusty also donated to the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research and the Bone Marrow & Cancer Foundation, where Ashley served on the Advisory Board, as part of their commitment to medicine and research.
