Shaping Legacies with Every Scholarship
Supporting high school students through intentional scholarship programs.
The Elevated Approach to Scholarships
At FGN, scholarships are more than financial awards. Our scholarship programs help elevate high school students preparing for college and transitioning into their first year.
Each program is designed to elevate students during critical transition points and help them navigate the path to college with confidence. As First Generation to the Next continues to grow, we plan to expand our scholarship offerings to support students at different stages of their educational journey.
