Donor Breakfast @ Wells Fargo

Siddharth Alexander, a First Graduate® volunteer and donor, recently hosted a breakfast for Wells Fargo colleagues to introduce them to our students and share the impact that donors and volunteers have on students’ lives.

Participating on the student panel were:

  • Gaby Gucho-Oliva, Experiential Marketing Manager at Wag Hotels (Tufts University)

  • Osvaldo Marquez, Treasury Management Sales Analyst at Wells Fargo (Pitzer College)

  • Chris Perez, Business and Marketing student at SFSU

  • Sally Yu, student at UC San Diego

  • Kiuver Orizabal, Teller at Wells Fargo

The students and Siddharth were so inspiring that many new volunteers have stepped forward to be tutors, mentors, and career coaches.

To Everyone Who Attended Cap & Gown 2023: Thank You!

As we celebrate our newest graduates, remember that first-generation students can move from sixth grade through college graduation and into meaningful careers because of you and your support! And we couldn’t do it without the help of our corporate supporters: Hamilton Zanze, Dodge & Cox, Accenture, Adobe, KPMG, BSSP, Millennium Career Advantage, and GoodRx.

Ramadan Mubarak!

Despite how difficult they can be to get, it’s impossible to overstate the importance of scholarships. Especially for a first-generation student, a scholarship can be the difference between being able to go to college and not.
