Scholarship Recipients Attend Giants vs. Dodgers

16 students from FG12 and FG13 attended the Giants v. Dodgers baseball game at AT&T Park here in San Francisco on September 14.

First Graduate® at Giants Game

Youth Opportunity Scholarships (YOS), which offers up to $500 of scholarship for middle school students to pursue an extracurricular activity, sponsored the event and hosted a tailgate before the game. First Graduate® YOS scholarship recipients were invited to this celebratory event along with 80 other scholarship recipients from partner organizations such as Breakthrough, Aim High, and Girls Inc.

This year nearly 40 First Graduate® students received funding from YOS to take classes in activities such as dance, karate, yoga, music, and photography.

Although the Dodgers won (4-2), the students still had a great time rooting for the San Francisco Giants!

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.
