Generation 1st

We support first-generation college students - students whose parents have not earned a four-year baccalaureate degree or students who are new to the United States. Our vision is for these individuals to cultivate the right mindset and build life-long skills that will not only help them gain admission to and finish college but also extend well beyond graduation as they continue to grow and contribute meaningfully to their communities. Our mission is to help first-generation college students identify, understand and build upon their own unique strengths to achieve their full potential, even if it’s beyond what they thought was possible for themselves. We accomplish this by providing scholarships, training, mentorship, and access to development opportunities that help them learn, grow, and achieve.
