The DHC First in Family Scholarship provides essential support to first-generation college students enrolled in the Douglas Honors College (DHC). This scholarship plays a pivotal role in helping students embark on their transformative academic journeys.
Your contribution provides financial assistance to students who may otherwise struggle to afford college, enabling them to pursue their dreams and achieve academic success. By supporting first-generation scholars, you're investing in the future leaders who will make a positive difference in their communities and beyond.
Help us raise $5,000 to support the DHC First in Family Scholarship, providing crucial assistance to deserving students like Alejandro Jimenez.
Alejandro said, "Despite receiving some scholarships for my achievements in high school, my family and I struggled to pay for the cost of tuition because I am a DACA recipient and do not qualify for most forms of financial aid...It wasn't until one of my scheduled advising meetings, that I realized my family and I didn't have to struggle alone. The Honors college helped me and opened so many doors, which gave me the opportunity to keep pursuing my dreams. The meeting showed me that the Honors College truly cared about me and wanted me to succeed."
