First And Proud Foundation Details
While colleges and universities are consistently improving academic and social support systems for first-generation college students, most of the funding for those students is limited to federal grants or school-specific scholarships which do not cover all of the expenses associated with earning a four-year degree. The NCES also finds that only 16% of financially disadvantaged students graduate from college. Many students who fail to graduate from institutions of higher learning often do so because they cannot meet the additional financial burdens required of them or do not have the guidance to help them navigate the complexities of the post-secondary financial aid system. As such, it is the mission of the Foundation to provide the financial assistance and mentorship necessary for these individuals to meet their academic aspirations. The Foundation seeks:To address systemic barriers and challenges by providing full or partial scholarship opportunities for students who wish to attend private schools. To provide a comprehensive support program to ensure students are successful in their academic endeavors.To provide resources, guidance, and support to parents and guardians as they assist their students in navigating the educational process.To help students develop valuable success strategies, build confidence, and understand their identities.To connect students to peer and professional mentors. To assist students with navigating choices about life after high school and/or college.
