First Graduate

First Graduate's mission is to help students become the first in their families to graduate from college, well-prepared to launch careers that are meaningful to them. We seek to level the playing field for students who are immigrants or children of immigrants, who come from challenging economic circumstances, and who are otherwise disadvantaged in the dominant culture. FG provides them with the long-term support that their more well-off peers receive so that they can be competitive high school and college candidates. And, this long-term investment in their education and exposure to career options sets them on a path to build careers, not just jobs. Education is a right, not a privilege, and we work with students from the summer after sixth grade through college graduation (a 12-year journey) to help them attain their degrees and thereby help their families move out of poverty in a single generation.
