Take the case of high school students without post-secondary role models to inspire them. For first-generation students and students of color in underserved communities, the hurdles have mounted as schools and students navigate complications with financial aid forms and the removal of race-conscious admissions. Since then, the organization has helped 42,000 underserved high school students achieve their goals through mentorship. Starting in students' junior year of high school, mentor pairs participate in weekly online sessions and monthly in-person meetings. Up to 40% of low-income students don't enroll in college the fall after high school graduation despite being accepted.
