First Graduate
First Graduate is a San Francisco-based college success program that helps students finish high school and become the first in their families to graduate from college ready to pursue meaningful careers. We equip first-generation students with the tools, resources, opportunities and networks necessary to be successful in college and beyond. We make a 10-year commitment to each student, starting the summer after sixth grade through college graduation. Our students receive year-round academic instruction, tutoring and support; high school and college counseling; mentoring; family engagement activities; career exploration activities; and access to college scholarships. To-date, 100 percent of our high school seniors have graduated from high school and enrolled in college. First Graduate college students are currently attending schools across the nation such as Barnard College, Harvard, Middlebury College, The University of San Francisco, Tufts University, University of California, Los Angeles and more. Our work creates a ripple effect that will transform families, neighborhoods, communities and San Francisco.
