Invest in a Berkeley scholar’s future
Your gift funds scholarships, advising, and mentorship for first-generation and low-income students from Berkeley — support that lasts through college and beyond.
Since 1991, Berkeley Community Scholars has helped local students bridge the opportunity divide. With a scholarship and a dedicated advisor behind them, our scholars graduate at up to five times the rate of their peers — and your gift is what makes that possible.
