Basta is a nonprofit closing the employment gap for first-generation students. Our model builds a bridge between employers and an untapped talent pipeline. 

We do this through rigorous career-prep programs that directly support students in securing great jobs and internships. We also form strategic partnerships with the larger higher-ed and nonprofit ecosystem to scale students’ access to high-quality career prep and with employers to build a talent pipeline for all their hiring needs.
