First Generation Champions Fund
Goal: $2,000
Support trailblazers who are creating new family legacies! At HCC, more than a third of our students are the first in their families to attend college. Through our TRIO Student Support Services, we're committed to turning their determination into success.
Your gift helps provide:
- Emergency assistance for textbooks and supplies
- Support for academic coaching sessions
- Resources for career exploration workshops
- Community-building events that create belonging
- Specialized STEM-HS guidance and support
"Being first in your family to attend college means navigating uncharted territory. Your gift ensures these determined students don't walk alone." -Elsie Rodriguez, Program Director, TRIO Support Services
Your Impact:
- Creates a welcoming community of support
- Removes unexpected financial barriers
- Connects students with mentors who understand their journey
- Provides targeted academic resources
- Builds professional networking opportunities
The hardest part of college should be the learning — not figuring out how to navigate the system. Your support helps ensure first-generation students can focus on their studies rather than struggling with barriers.
Through TRIO, we're not just supporting students — we're helping create new possibilities for families and communities.
