South County Cal-SOAP understands the jump from high school to college is a tough transition for any student; for low-income and first-generation students, it can be nearly impossible. Financial stability is a constant battle, but with the help of generous donors (like you!), the support doesn’t stop when students need it the most. The Cal-SOAP Scholarship Fund has granted over $1.4 million worth of scholarships to both new and continuing college students 😀
Help us continue our efforts by donating to the Cal-SOAP Scholarship Fund today!
Your support will help change lives right here in our community.
“Being a first-generation student, going to college is hard. Since my elders have never had the college experience they just assume and make it seem as if it’s easy, but it’s not; it’s like walking onto a plank blindfolded, without having your family there to lead you. You have no other choice but to ask for help from those around you. College programs like Cal-SOAP helped me to get where I am today. Without them, I would have no idea where I would be.”
