About Us

We are First Graduate, a non-profit in the heart of San Francisco dedicated to supporting, empowering, and enabling first generation students to graduate from college. Through a free 12-year program (recruiting students in 6th grade), we offer homework and study support, test prep, school evaluation, field trips and university visits, scholarship and internship access, community building, career exposure via visits to and from industry professionals, and more. We are the only program in San Francisco that helps students from the summer after sixth grade through college graduation and into their first jobs! Educational equity and social justice are at the heart of our work, thanks to your kind and generous support.
