First-Generation Programming
They’re the First — But They’re Not Alone

First-generation students at Stanislaus State are trailblazers. They're the first in their families to navigate the world of higher education, often without a clear map or guide. Your support helps make that journey less daunting and far more empowering.

Your gift will fund impactful programming such as First-Gen Fridays, our campuswide First-Gen November Celebration and graduation sashes that mark milestones with pride. These experiences aren’t just symbolic; they build community, offer guidance and affirm to students that they belong here.

Since launching this initiative, we’ve reached more than 1,000 First-Gen students; with your help, we’ll reach even more.

Support First-Gen students as they pave the way for themselves, their families and the future.
