Seeking Support for First-Generation College Students?

FirstGen Ahead supports college students coming from partner organizations. These organizations include:

  • Foundations that financially support first-generation college students
  • Educational not-for-profits that provide supportive services for first-generation students to get to and/or through college
  • University-based programs dedicated to the success of first-generation college students

Join us as an Affiliate or Associate Partner.

Affiliate Partners benefit from FirstGen Ahead’s consulting services and infrastructure support for replicating in-house FirstGen Ahead’s college-to-career services.

Associate Partners contract with FirstGen Ahead to directly provide one-on-one coaching, small group project learning, and networking opportunities for their students.

“FirstGen Ahead has been an incredible experience and resource to the Steppingstone Scholars who have participated! Their one-on-one coaching encourages strong and supportive relationships, and the peer support model creates a space for everyone to learn from each other.  I am confident Scholars are gaining new skills in preparation for not only their first positions after college, but also future careers.”

– Annie Wu, Director of College Programs, The Steppingstone Foundation
